When the board moved $50,000 or so from parking to Aquatics it had no idea of the counts for use of the pool passes. Like most things around here, they acted without proper information. If my memory serves me right, the proposed change in accounting was based on more than a SWAG (Scientific Wild A** Guess). I think it was based more on estimated costs to run the Beach Club Pool. Secondly, the proposal seemed to be favored, from a theoretical view, by most B&FAC members at the time and by Pete Gomsak, Bob Thompson and the Aquatics manager. My primary reservation was that the change should be footnoted on both the Aquatics and Beach Club Parking revenue lines on the monthly financial reports. To the best of my knowledge this was only done for last two months I was on the committee and then stopped. Gene |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: approximately $437,500 in revenue from the sale of 2500 Beach Club Parking permits at $175. Since the $175 permits come with 4 swim passes, that would account for 10,000 pool passes for the beach club pool. Yes. Ms. Phillips recently posted that the beach club pool had approximately 22,000 visits in 2015 with just over half of those visits utilizing the pool passes that come with the seasonal parking pass. If we had approximately 12,000 visits by individuals using the pool pass provided with the parking permit, that would be 12,000 visits divided by 10,000 pool passes. Seems that the pool passes were only utilized 1.2 times per available passes. An excellent analysis. Wish I had done it. That leaves me to believe and concur with you that folks who are buying our annual Beach Club Parking Permit are much more inclined to be using the BEACH and not the pool. If the available pool passes had just been used 4 times each that would have totaled 40,000 visits to the beach club pool, a far cry from the approximately 12,000 visits actually used. The 12,000 is your estimate, I believe. When the board moved $50,000 or so from parking to Aquatics it had no idea of the counts for use of the pool passes. Like most things around here, they acted without proper information. Yet another sales job on the board by the GM. This accounting process should have never been changed. |
