CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 12/16/2013 SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager PREPARED BY: Patrick McIntosh, Fire Chief SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No.2013-75 authorizing an increase in Junior Lifeguard Program Fees and approve an appropriation for the Junior Lifeguard Program Business Unit Statement of Issue: Increased participation in the Junior Lifeguard Program has resulted in a need to make staffing changes to meet industry standards and provide for student safety. Consequently, an increase in the program fees is needed to cover program costs and a revision to the fee schedule is requested, along with an appropriation for the Junior Lifeguard Program business unit. Financial Impact: It is anticipated an additional $50,000 in General Fund revenue will be generated by the proposed fee in FY 2013/14. This revenue will offset increased program costs, including providing improved oversight of participants to meet industry standards for instructor to student ratios. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2013-75, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of, Huntington Beach Amending Resolution No. 2009-33 Which Established A Citywide Schedule For Charges For Facility Rentals. And All Supplemental Resolution Thereto (Supplemental Fee Resolution No. 4)" authorizing an increase in Junior Lifeguard Program Fees; and, approve an appropriation of up to $50,000 to the Junior Lifeguard Program business unit (10065205), commensurate with the amount of increased revenue realized. Alternative Action(s): Do not adopt the resolution or appropriate the funding and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: The Huntington Beach Junior Lifeguard Program provides aquatic training for city youth, ages 9-17, including instruction in lifesaving; first aid, CPR, and how to recognize and avoid potentially hazardous conditions associated with an ever-changing aquatic environment. Each year this program includes between 900 and 1,000 participants. It has been in existence for 50 years and is recognized as being world renowned, attracting students from Germany, France, England, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Mexico and other countries. In the United States, students come from numerous states, including Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Hawaii, New York, .Utah and Florida. The program has also been involved in numerous international educational exchanges with New Zealand and representatives have visited Australia, Wales and Germany. HB -159- Item 12. - 1 Dept.ID FD13 011 Page 2 of 2 Meeting Date: 12/16/2013 Over time, the success of the Junior Lifeguard Program has resulted in an increase in the number of Junior Lifeguards per instructor. At this time, the ratio is approximately 25 students to each instructor; a ratio of 20 students to each instructor is recommended. This improved span of control will provide for more effective supervision and increased safety. To reduce the number of students supervised by each instructor to this level would require the addition of five instructors. Program costs are covered by participant fees with residents currently paying $550 and non-residents paying $575. In order to generate the revenue required to reduce instructor-to-student ratios to meet industry standards, an increase of$55 dollars per participant is recommended. The new rates would still be below the average of surrounding jurisdictions, as shown in the following summary: Agency Cost-Resident Cost-Non-Resident Weeks/Days/Hours Newport Beach $700 $850 7 weeks,4 days/week,3 hrs/day Seal Beach $510 $520 7 weeks, 5 days/week, 3 hrs/day State Beach 670 670 8 weeks*.5 days/week,6 hrs/day .overage $627 $680 #ait os $66 ... +► ems ayseehrs ,' * Includes two four-week sessions. Program fees have not increased since 2009. The proposed fees would provide the revenue necessary for the additional instructors, as well as cover increases in uniform, supply, transportation, food and other costs. In addition, part-time clerical support is needed for the program during the summer and the increase would provide this assistance. Environmental Status: None. Strategic Plan Goal: Maintain and enhance public safety. Attachment(s): 1.
