'MEMORANDUM TO: 0)-1
The City Commission of the City of Clearwater
SUBJECT:
Agenda No. $/eX
Meeting Date: 9/L-
USER'S FEE - FIRE DEPARTMENT TRAINING FACILITY
RECOMMENDATION: Approve a "user's fee" for the use of the Fire Department training
facilities by governmental and non-governmental agencies, and to allow the City Manager to
administer these fees.
IE' And that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same.
8ACKGROUN D:
The Fire Department Training Grounds, located at 1700 Belcher Road, are presently
being shared on a contract basis with Pinellas Vocational Technical Institute
(P,V.T.I.). This contract will not be renewed by P.V.T.I. for fiscal year 1985/86
since their training load will not justify the annual expenditure of $5,200.
The Fire Department does receive requests from other governmental and non-government~
agencies requesting the use of the training facilities. An operational and capital
cost study was perfonned and a "user's fee" of up to $65.00 per day is being recom-
mended. Additionally, because of the urgency of the requesting agencies to have an
answer so classes can be scheduled, it is recommended that the City Manager be grant:
the authority to administer the fire training user's fee program.
It is anticipated that annual user's fee revenue will be in excess of $6,500. A cop~
of the proposed Facilities Use Agreement is attached.
