Summary
The city is rewriting how it charges for parks — fees move out of the code into a document the council can update by resolution, plus new reservation limits and stricter cancellation rules. Fees could now change faster, so residents renting facilities should watch for updates.

Impact analysis
The schedule locks in specific rental and use fees for community centers, golf, tennis, Haddad Riverfront Park, Magic Island and the portable stage; rates take effect for new reservations after council passage.
Park users get clear published fees and rules, and groups like schools and little leagues get accommodations for tournaments and block reservations.
Groups that previously booked more than four reservations a week may face limits unless they get written approval from the Parks director.
