Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting 04-17-2024

The City of Mountain House Parks and Recreation Commission held a meeting on April 17, 2024, primarily focused on approving and recommending new picnic rental policies to the Board of Directors. The discussion centered on establishing rental rates for picnic areas based on maintenance and staff costs, with proposed full-day rates of $120 for six-table areas, $90 for three-table areas, and $60 for two-table areas. The commission also approved half-day rental rates at 70% of the full-day fees and a 50% premium for non-resident renters. Additionally, the commission reviewed a draft contract instructor handbook outlining requirements and procedures for independent instructors offering recreational programs, seeking feedback before finalizing. No contract awards or capital projects were discussed, but the meeting included policy decisions affecting future rental fee structures and instructor engagement processes.
