Mal'one, ayor ATTEST: at~~~ Cherie Black City Secretary ~~~ Knox W. Askins City Attorney I . . e EXHIBIT "A" PROPOSAL FOR SPECIAL PURCHASE PASSES It is recommended that the City of La Porte offer the option, to its users, a variety of special passes to be used at Little Cedar Bayou Wave Pool. We feel that this option would increase our sales and daily attendance. We feel that the current season pass is limiting to those who may travel, vacation or have other obligations during the summer that may discourage the purchase of a pass for an entire season. Therefore, we would like to offer passes available for limited periods of time. Thos~ include a monthly (30 day) pass, a 5 day pass and.a 3 day pass. The 30 day fees are based on a 1/3 percentage of the seasonal pass all ready in existence. The 5 day and 3 day pass are computed at a rate of 25% discount of the daily admission fee and rounded up to the nearest 25 cent increment. We are aware of the possibility that a non-resident may attempt to get a resident to purchase a pass at a lower fee, however, we feel that the current policy on proof of residency would greatly reduce the chance for misuse or error. ., ,.. , "' e EXHIBIT A ' PAGE 2, 'e LInLE CEDAR BAYOU WAVE POOL SPECIAL PURCHASE PASSES SEdSCN ?~SS Entit.:..es beare~ to access the pool for' any regular swim period throughout th.e season.

We propose the following policies be adopted to insure the proper administration of these requests: *1. Exclusive use of community swimming pools by Special Groups: *only valid for our San Jacinto and Northwest Park Pools. A. Available Tuesdays thru Fridays from 11: 00 a .m. till 12:45 p.m. B. Times must be reserved a minimum of two (2) weeks in advance. C. Cancellations must be made a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours in advance of reservation. D.

Reduced admission rate for Special Group Patrons durin'g Public Swim Sessions: *only valid for our San Jacinto and Northwest Park Pools. A. Available during any public swim sessions. B. For groups of over twenty (20) we will require a minimum of twenty-four (24) hour advance notice. c. Will require a ratio of one (1) special group staff person per ten (10) patrons. D. Admission rate of .50 for each patron over the age of four (40). Under four (4) admitted free. E. Available Tuesdays thru Fridays. staff does not believe we should offer any discounts or special times for any group at the Little Cedar Bayou Park Wave Pool. The admission rates for the Wave Pool are very reasonable as they stand, and the scheduling of and cost of operating that facility prohibits any exclusive use agreements other than our "Private Party" times and rates. t. e . EXHIBIT "C" LITTLE CEDAR BAYOU WAVE POOL Mondays - Saturdays Sundays 11:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. 12:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. NORTHWEST POOL AND SAN JACINTO POOL Mondays Tuesdays - Saturdays Sundays Closed 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. / 6:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. It is recommended that the hours of operation for the La Porte Municipal Pools be as follows. It is also recommended that the Northwest and San Jacinto pools be closed on Mondays. This would enable proper maintenance to be performed in a thorough and comprehensive manner. It would also greatly reduce the amount of wear and tear on the filtration and operation systems at each of the facilities. It is found to be a common practice among many municipal pools and does appear to help customer satisfaction by having better maintained facilities. The closing on Mondays would allow crews to perform lawn care, locker room cleaning, deck cleaning, general repairs, and if necessary super chlorination of the pools. As well as being able to conduct staff training sessions. We also request to be given the authority to make decisions regarding the adjusting of hours of operation to accommodate heavy use times and low attendance periods. We feel it is very cost prohibited to remain operational during late evening hours when there are no users. We would like to be able to best serve the populations needs and wants and would require the ability to make on site decisions regarding hours of operation in this manner. e EXHIBIT 1) . ............................................................................... ............. ............................................................................... ............ ............................................................................... ............. ............................................................................... ............ ............................................................................... ............. -:-:<-:-:.:-:-:.:.:-:.:-:.:.:-:.:-:.:.:.:-:-:.:.:.:-:.:.:-:.:.:.:.:-:-:-:.:.:-:.:-:.:-:.:-:-:-:.:-:.:-:-:-:-:.:-:.:-:-:-:.:.:.:.:.:-:-:.:.:.:-:-:.:-:.:-:-:.: .:.:-:.:-:-:.:.:-:-:.:-:. ~))) ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ j ~ ~ ~) ~ ~ ~) ~ ~ ~) ~) ~ ~ ~) ~ W)) ~! ~ ~ ~) ~ ~!
