SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Community Services
Prepared by: Debbie Younkin, Recreation City Manager Approval:
Supervisor
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN RAFAEL AUTHORIZING
THE EXECUTION OF THE 2010 AGREEMENT WITH ORCA SWIM CLUB FOR USE OF THE TERRA
LINDA COMMUNITY CENTER AND POOL
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Resolution authorizing the
Orca Swim Club to conduct club events and swim practices at the Terra Linda Community Center and
Pool for the 2010 swim season.
BACKGROUND: The Orca Swim Club has utilized the Terra Linda Community Pool since 1962. The
swim club has 150-200 members, ages 5-18, who train and compete in the Marin Swim League. The
Club utilizes the pool facilities from March through mid July, Monday through Friday, for practices and 8-
10 Saturday mornings per year for swim meet competitions and clinics. The Club also utilizes the
facilities in the Terra Linda Recreation Center for meetings, socials and fundraisers.
In December of each year, the Community Services staff meets with Club representatives to schedule
pool and facility use that strike a balance between Club needs and community access to both facilities
ANALYSIS: For the past seven years the Club and the City have actively negotiated various terms and
conditions to strike a balance between the facility needs of the Club and the community program facility
needs.
2010 Agreement changes are minimal. The Club has four home meets and the season will again be
ending one week earlier. The team has asked to run a consistent practice schedule running from
5:15pm-8:45pm, starting in March. In previous years the team started practice at 3:30pm in the Spring
and switched to a later time in Mid May. The later start time in Spring will allow us more space and time
for the general public and programming. The final change is procedural, setting a new time frame for
invoicing and payment.
FISCAL IMPACT: The table below shows the revenue for the past two seasons. We are recommending
the fees stay the same. The Club will pay the City a fee of $35.50 per hour for Lifeguard coverage and
TLCP use, and the non-profit rate for hourly use of the Community Center ($30-$50 per hour depending
on the space reserved). For the month of March and early April, the Club will pay a portion of the utility
costs for the pool in the amount of $945.00. We saw a slight decrease in the net revenue the city
collected because the team had one less meet and the season ended one week earlier this season.
