▪ Fee Schedule Changes
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Councilmembers
From: Chris Jenkins, Parks & Recreation Director
Date: October 7, 2024
Item: Hastings Civic Arena Fee Schedule 2024-2025
Council Action Requested: Conduct 2nd Reading and Adopt updates to the
Hastings Civic Arena Fee Schedule for the 2024 – 2025 season.
Background Information: Fees at the Hastings Civic Arena have
historically been very low, however over the past few years, staff have been
slowly increasing fees. These fee increases are a reflection of increased
costs for operating the facility as well as remaining more in line with fees at
surrounding facilities. We remain low on our ice rental rates, and need to
adjust those. With the proposed increases, Hastings will remain at the low
end of the ice rate scale within the metro area.
As you are aware, we are also in the midst of a $5.2M project at the Civic
Arena, and will be paying for this project for the next 10 years. Increased
fees will also help to make a portion of this payment.
The 1st Reading for this item was completed September 16, 2024. Action
tonight is to conduct 2nd Reading and adopt the updated fees.
See attached for proposed fee changes.
Financial Impact: A positive financial impact of roughly $28,500.00
annually based upon typical Prime ice rental hours, and based on 2023-
2024 prime ice rate of $215.00/hr.
