Recreation User Fees
The City of Pickering’s Recreation Division provides a wide range of recreation and sport facilities and programs to enable residents to be physically active, pursue interests, and stay connected with others. While some of these services are provided free-of-charge, others involve a user fee or rental charge to offset municipal costs. Some examples of fees and charges include:
Recreation programs for all ages, such as fitness, sports, aquatics, camps, and more
Admissions, such as recreational swimming, public skating, museum admissions, and other drop-in activities
Ticketed and Community Events, such as events at Pickering Museum Village
Specialized Services, such as community centre memberships and personal training
Facility Rentals, such as ice, sports fields, gymnasiums, leased spaces, and more
The City has initiated the development of a Recreation User Fee Study to review the fees and charges noted above, establish a framework to inform the development of a Pricing Policy, and establish a process for updating and monitoring recreation fees and charges. The Recreation User Fees Study will contribute to the strategic goals of maintaining a fiscally sustainable system of community services facilities and programs, while maximizing participation.
This study is supported by the City’s 2017 Recreation and Parks Master Plan(External link), which recommended the development of an equitable and fair-minded Recreation User Fee Study. Monteith Brown Planning Consultants and Tucker-Reid & Associates have been retained to assist the City in preparing the study.
