For background information on each of the items, please refer to the memo prepared by Director of Administrative Services VanOverbeke. As the committee will see, there is a great deal of information included in the enclosed memo, which can be difficult to follow without the benefit of a presentation. The agenda and background memo were distributed ahead of time in order to give the committee the opportunity to review the budget information and public policy issues prior to Monday's meeting. The data and budget charts will become clearer after staff has the opportunity to present the enclosed data to the committee. At the conclusion of Monday's operations committee meeting, the committee may then wish to discuss whether all or portion of the Community Center budget is ready for presentation at the Council's retreat on Monday evening. City . dministrator cc: Gene VanOverbeke, Director of Administrative Services Dianne Lord, Assistant to the City Administrator Ken Vraa, Director of Parks and Recreation Sandy Breuer, Community Center Manager MEMO city of eagan TO: City Administrator Hedges FROM: Director of Administrative Services VanOverbeke DATE: October 24, 2003 SUBJECT: 2003 Operations Update and 2004 Community Center Operating Budget At the April 1, 2003 regular meeting the City Council approved the 2003/2004 Community Center Operating Plan. In acknowledging the uncertainty of estimates and assumptions used in developing the material and to maintain a significant element of flexibility, the document was presented as a plan and not referred to as a budget. It was prepared as a framework for operations with a clear expectation that modifications would be required as operations were undertaken at the Community Center. It was obviously a challenge to prepare the operating plan without the benefit of prior operating experience and with no similar models in either the private or public sector to draw from. Those issues combined with normal start-up costs and uncertainty resulted in a large number of assumptions and a requirement for flexibility in implementation. As you are aware, the document incorporated the overall operating philosophy and direction of the City Council Operations Committee, representing the full Council, and was based on the hours of meetings that were held. The following general parameters were listed prior to the adoption of the original 2003/2004 Operating Plan and are repeated here as background for the public policy issues that are raised in this budgeting process. The facility is looked at as a whole. Although, certain areas/programs/operations are relatively independent from an operational standpoint, there is a great deal of interaction among the various components of the building. Items like days and hours of operation, memberships, programming, and rental opportunities and rates have impacts across the entire facility. The challenge of budgeting details while looking at the big picture has constantly been present in preparing and reviewing this material. 2. The facility is being viewed as a community center as opposed to a private sector health club. Community centers provide some programs and community/citizen opportunities that in and of themselves are not self- sustaining from a cost perspective. This is a significantly different model than you see in the private sector where only activities that produce revenue or contribute directly to revenues are offered and a clear bottom line financial analysis drives all decisions. Q 3. The success of the project will ultimately be determined over the long-term. There is a delicate balance between a short-term successful opening that impresses participants and makes them want to return and to renew memberships and long-term community acceptance of and support for the facility. 4. The importance of successfully marketing the facility and developing an acceptable market niche to maximize revenues while blending in the community center philosophy cannot be overstated. 5. Although the facility is being operated as an enterprise fund from an accounting standpoint, there is a dependence on other City operating funds incorporated into this plan. 6. The phased opening was designed to maximize immediate revenues and community exposure thereby building a solid foundation from which to move forward. 7. The plan is put together prior to a final determination on how child care will be operated. Staff is still exploring ways to maximize revenues by possibly providing fee-based programming for children in the child care space while parents are engaged in other fee-based programs. Another model would provide for more unscheduled drop-in day care services that are probably more costly on a net (expenses verses revenues) basis. Some combination of these two models is also a possibility. 8. No renewal or replacement or depreciation is funded in this plan. The Operations Committee has directed staff to reduce spending in the construction FF&E account to retain a beginning balance for renewal and replacement in lieu of funding that type of account from operations or funding depreciation. 2003 Operations Update Revised estimates for 2003 are included as part of the 2004 Operating Budget Expenditure Worksheets enclosed on pages through 1 `'i . Revised revenue summary projections are enclosed on page 1 In general terms the following table illustrates the comparison of the approved plan versus the revised estimates: 3 Expenditures: Personal Services Supplies, Repairs and Maintenance Other Services and Charges Merchandise For Resale Total Expenditures Revenues: Monthly Membership Fees Initiation Fees Daily Passes Fitness Classes Child Care Birthday Parties Playscape Oaks Banquet Room Oaks Banquet Room Commissions Room Rentals Gym Rental Teen Center Senior Memberships Community Center Programming Concessions/Vending ECVB - Operating Only Totals Difference: Revenues - Expenditures 2003 Original Revised Change $ 433,200 $ 431,100 $ (2,100) 59,000 55,500 (3,500) 146,200 163,379 17,179 15,000 15,000 - $ 653,400 $ 664,979 $ 11,579 $ 39,000 $ 61,100 $ 22,100 11,900 18,800 6,900 3,600 1,800 (1,800) 22,500 22,500 - 18,900 200 (18,700) 35,544 42,653 7,109 40,300 48,300 8,000 38,200 35,000 (3,200) 25,000 25,000 - 24,675 15,500 (9,175) 26,460 26,215 (245) 4,154 400 (3,754) 673 - (673) 5,385 7,000 1,615 20,000 18,000 (2,000) 4,950 4,950 - $ 321,241 $ 327,418 $ 6,177 $ (332,159) $ (337,561) $ (5,402) In total the projected changes from the approved 2003 Operating Plan are quite minimal. Obviously, there are a large number of areas where refinement is necessary, especially on the revenue side. Some of these areas generate public policy issues that will be summarized later in this memo. 2003 Expenditures With only limited operating experience to date, a great deal of uncertainty still exists in estimating for the balance of 2003 and in estimating for all of 2004. On the expenditure side a number of line items were adjusted slightly up or down with no overall impact. Significant changes were made in electricity and natural gas where the revised 2003 estimate is increased in total by approximately $30,000 from the approved 2003 Operating Plan. 2003 Revenues On the revenue side the total has not changed materially from the 2003 Operating Plan, although a number of the revenue components have been adjusted by rather large amounts. Certain revenue producing activities have been more successful than predicted and others have been less successful. Memberships are significantly ahead of estimates while child care has produced very little revenue and room rentals have lagged behind expectations. 9 2004 Operating Budget Again enclosed pages 10 through 14 are the 2004 Operating Budget Expenditure Worksheets. The revised revenue summary projections are enclosed on page 15. In general terms the following table illustrates the comparison of the approved plan verses the revised estimates: 2004 Expenditures: Personal Services Supplies, Repairs and Maintenance Other Services and Charges Merchandise For Resale Total Expenditures Revenues: Monthly Membership Fees Initiation Fees Daily Passes Fitness Classes Child Care Birthday Parties Playscape Oaks Banquet Room Oaks Banquet Room Commissions Room Rentals Gym Rental Teen Center Senior Memberships Community Center Programming ConcessionslVending ECVB - Operating Only Totals Difference: Revenues - Expenditures Original Revised $ 698,000 $ 77.9,500__ 61,000 55,000 170,500 288,000 18,000 18,000 $ 947,500 $ 1,140,500 $ 297,200 $ 9,900 10,800 76,500 48,048 63,450 58,000 87,400 50,000 36,660 65,520 12,000 1,000 8,000 40,000 6,600 $ 871,078 335,400 36,000 5,400 67,000 900 65,565 66,000 75,250 46,000 30,000 49,790 5,000 21,000 40,000 6,600 $ 849,905 Change $ _81,500_ (6,000) 117,500 $ 193,000 $ 38,200 26,100 (5,400) (9,500) (47,148) 2,115 8, 000 (12,150) (4,000) (6, 660) (15, 730) (7,000) (1,000) 13,000 (76,422) $ (290,595) $ (214,173) 2004 Expenditures Expenditure changes basically reflect information gathered from the experience of operating the facility to date and expenditures made or not made in 2003. A number of line items have been adjusted and do not materially affect the overall budget. However, the following components presented in a building block fashion do have a material impact as proposed in changing the originally approved 2004 Expenditure Operating Plan: There are two (2) additional full-time employees at a total cost of $97,300 proposed in the 2004 Budget. These positions will be discussed in detail in the public policy section of this memo. As a partial off -set temporary salaries have been reduced by $14,300. In combination with other changes in the Personal Services section of the budget a net increase of $81,500 from the originally approved 2004 Operating Plan is presented. In Other Services and Charges electricity is increased by $56,500 and natural gas is increased by $61,000 both from the originally approved 2004 Operating Plan. These revised estimates are based on experience to date which again is 5 quite limited. Additional work is being undertaken to verify the reasonableness of these projections. Enclosed on page is a copy of 2004 Personnel Services Costs. The material shows the actual calculation of 2004 costs for regular employees including the proposed additional positions. Enclosed on pages_ through Iq is the summary and detailed calculations of Part Time/Seasonal Wage and Benefit Costs for 2004. The detail shows the actual calculations for the part time/seasonal positions. Totals are based on days of operation and designated staffing allocations directed to those specific areas. 2004 Revenues .'n As noted in the above chart and as demonstrated in detail on the enclosed pages through AS , there are significant adjustments to the 2004 Operating Revenue Budget estimates. Again, it cannot be over emphasized how much variability is incorporated into these revenue projections depending on the assumptions that are used. The estimates, in general, are fairly aggressive and rely on continued extensive and successful marketing of the facility in combination with high customer acceptance and satisfaction. PUBLIC POLICY ISSUES The following are public policy issues being presented to the Operating Committee and the City Council to provide direction to staff. Hours of Operations Enclosed for consideration on page are the proposed dates and times the facility is scheduled to be open to the public in 2004. The material as presented is consistent with 2003 operations. The July 4th hours will need to be addressed after the various activities included in the community celebration are scheduled by the 4th of July Committee. Rate Adjustments There are no rate changes incorporated into the revenue estimates for the 2004 Budget. If the City Council would like more rate information or would like specific fees reviewed appropriate direction should be provided. 6o 1 .3L 1 sa, d� Child Care Unfortunately, the Child Care operations have not worked to date as expected when the 2003 Operating Plan was approved. The following options were prepared by Community Center Manager Breuer as possibilities to consider as we go forward: 1) Continue as is — great deficit to the budget. 2) Discontinue day care — I don't think we will lose members, but we may not gain the parent crowd. I do not believe that we have much experience to draw on yet. It has only been open 1'/2 months and we are not yet into the "cold" season. 3) Take out child care and use it for whatever programming we can and use it as another room to rent out. 4) Reduce fees in the child care — we have had concerns that it costs too much. If we reduce fees, it reduces incoming drop-in fees for child care but may generate more members. Another option is to offer child care for free, in the hopes that in doing so we increase membership sales; as they no longer need to pay for that service. 5) Turn the room into something else. Massage is one idea. Some redesign on the room would need to be done. We should see revenue from this as we have the option to contract this out. 6) Programming — Holly Champlin offered several programs in there this summer. It was very successful, however, fall was not. So I have concerns that we can generate revenue, by just "adding" more classes. The fall classes were scheduled to try to pull in moms that would workout during this time as well. Only one of these five classes went and no moms are staying for the fitness side of it. Again, this was done prior to our moving in the direction of the punch card. Senior Membership Fees The original Operating Plan for 2003 and 2004 included $673 and $1,000 respectively to be collected from Senior Memberships for basic room requests, coffee cups, etc. The work with the Senior Program group has not contemplated a membership fee that would benefit the Community Center. They have instead focused on a voluntary membership fee that would cover the above mentioned items and be used to enhance senior activities. Memberships would be a gatekeeper to specific program offerings (of that group) but not to the Community Center. The organization through their volunteering/programming efforts might help the City (General Fund) limit programming expenditures but there does not seem to be a City revenue source involved in these discussions. There are no Senior Membership fees included in the revised 2003 or in the proposed 2004 revenue estimates. Teen Fees The original Operating Plan for 2003 and 2004 included $5,385 (pro -rated from a full year at $12,000) and $12,000 respectively to be collected from coin operated machines in the Teen Room based on the information from Maple Grove. The revised 2003 revenue estimate is $400 and $5,000 is projected in the proposed 2004 revenue estimates. There is minimal rental revenue from renting out the Teen Room included with the Room Rental estimates. 9 Staffing In preparing the 2003/2004 Operating Plan a decision was made to reduce full time staffing to six positions from the proposed 12. The reduction and/or delay in further consideration of the positions has resulted not only in the desired cross training of employees but has had the unintended consequence of taking employees away from their primary tasks. In the case of the Fitness Coordinator and the Rental Room Coordinator other added responsibilities are compromising their ability to contribute to successful marketing of the facility through outreach to the community and to businesses. The on-going lack of the maintenance position jeopardizes the ability to present the type of building and image that is required for satisfied customers and long term success. Clearly, there are cost implications in adding these positions and it is difficult to quantify potential revenues that may be added by incorporating them, however, marketing, building appearance, including first impressions, and quality customer service are key in achieving and maintaining long term success. Enclosed on pages 21 and .21 is a copy of a memo from Community Center Manager Breuer providing additional background information on current operations and on the proposed positions. Marketing/ECVB Marketing Plan/Promotions Enclosed on pages '>61 through is a copy of a cover memo from Community Center Manager Breuer and a memo from Fitness Coordinator Kropelnicki outlining a proposed New Year Fitness Promotion and additional promotional ideas. The Operations Committee and/or a City Council are being asked to endorse the plan as presented or to recommend changes so implementation can be undertaken. The Eagan Convention and Visitors Bureau has a proposed budget line item of $45,000 to use in marketing the Community Center. The question is to how best utilize a coordinated marketing effort that will be mutually beneficial. Using the Community Center as an attraction to assist in bringing visitors to Eagan is clearly beneficial for the ECVB and the hospitality industry. The benefit and the return on the investment are not as obvious for the Community Center as daily visitors, no matter how impressed they are, will have limited impact on revenue streams. Lobby Furniture/Terracotta Planters In August, Councilmember Fields inquired about the cost of obtaining large, terracotta planters to be placed outside the second floor entrance of the Community Center. Commercially, 36 -inch terracotta planters cost approximately $70 per planter, which would not include the annual cost of flowers, maintenance, etc. Councilmember Fields also inquired about the furniture that is currently in the Community Center lobby. Particularly, she was concerned that the furniture looked small in comparison to the scale of the building. i Product/Business Plan As expected the City Council and staff are starting to receive specific complaints/suggestions about cost and program offerings or lack of program offerings at the Community Center. It has been suggested that it is time to review the product that is being offered and the overall business plan for the facility. That review should be undertaken in the context of what has been the dominant directive/objective to date: that the facility breaks even from a revenue and expense operational perspective. In addressing the concerns and/or changing the business plan caution needs to be exercised to fully understand the interrelationship of what may be mutually exclusive or at least inconsistent objectives. Financial Support While a primary objective of the Community Center has been to break even from the revenue and expense operational perspective, start up costs and the philosophy of a community center versus a health club have made that a difficult objective to achieve, certainly in the short term. Realistically, it may very well be a difficult objective to attain even in the long term and may in fact prevent the facility from reaching its full potential in benefiting the community. Perhaps recognition of that fact resulting in a slightly revised business plan including some expanded, subsidized program offerings and less emphasis on breaking even would better position the City to meet overall community desires. A dedicated, stable funding source to provide annual financial assistance would be required as the other side of this type of transition and care would need to be exercised that the pendulum not swing too far in the other direction. When the General Fund Budget was being considered, one of the revenue building blocks not incorporated into the proposed 2004 Budget was the antenna lease revenue estimated to be $337,000 for 2004. Sin is non- ax revenue and its transfer from use m t e fility fund would have minimal impact, its dedication to a purpose of community wide benefit such as supporting the Community Center certainly seems reasonable. Use of antenna lease revenues would eliminate the conflict with the General Fund in the allocation of scarce resources, reduce the break even objective from the Community Center, and allow more flexibility in providing opportunities to the citizens. The General Fund fund balance and General Fund operations would no longer need to be dedicated as a potential source for Community Center support. Conclusion While there are significant challenges and a steep learning curve ahead relative to the Community Center operations, the facility is off to a very encouraging start. The participation and enthusiasm demonstrated in the grand opening, the number�of memberships sold and the demand for use of various spaces provide a solid base to continue to build upon. Operating experience is obviously very limited; however the public policy issues raised in this memo indicate the magnitude and potential implications of the choices that are before the City Council at this time. Staff is looking forward to meeting with the Operations Committee and City Council to provide additional information and to receive their direction.

However, the 4'h of July hours may need to be adjusted to accommodate the 0 of July celebration. At the time of this writing, it was believed by the O of July committee, that the parade would be held on Saturday and the fireworks on Sunday. Should this assumption hold true we recommend following our regular Sunday posted hours. To: Operations Committee From: Sandy Breuer, Community Center Manager Re: Request for Full-time Community Center Staff Date: October 23, 2003 The Community Center is requesting two new full-time staffing positions for the 2004 budget year. Listed below are the two positions we feel are vital to operating the building and generating revenue. Custodian Prior to the Community Center opening in 2003 Hillyard, Inc. performed a cleaning cost analysis of the Community Center. This study determines the amount of cleaning staff needed to clean the building based on industry standards. Industry standards including square footage, types of fixtures, types of materials, including carpet, tile, wood floor, restrooms, office space, open spaces, and cleaning equipment available in our building. Standards of cleanliness are provided by the International Sanitary and Supply Association. This report recommended that six full-time staff were needed to maintain the cleanliness of the building. At a minimum it was recommended that the Eagan Community Center needed four full-time employees to maintain the integrity of the building. The survey stated that to maintain optimal levels of cleanliness seven full-time staff would be needed. At this time the community center is operating with two full-time custodial employees and 63 hours weekly in part-time staff hours. The square footage of City Hall/Police, Fire Administration, and Central Maintenance combined is 74,000 square feet and is cleaned and maintained using 240 total manpower hours weekly. In comparison, the community center at 68,000 square feet, is more heavily used by the public than any of the above buildings, is open nearly triple the hours, and is cleaned and maintained using 183 total manpower hours Weekly. This includes the Building Maintenance Engineers hours. With the substantial investment that has been made in this building we want to keep it looking new and maintain its integrity for years to come. The building is typically open between 110-120 per week. With tournaments quickly approaching and more and more Friday night bookings in the banquet room, additional staff is needed to keep up with the demand that is being placed on this building. Facifity/Proaram Coordinator Although the building appears to be operating smoothly, more and more of the community is becoming aware of what this building offers and the number of visits and participants is growing. It is our goal to offer more programs in the building to generate additional revenue, which in turn will add to the levels of traffic and participation. Planning for expanded participation has created some challenges. Current staff has taken on duties typically not associated with their areas of expertise. The Fitness Coordinator is currently running the point of sale (cash handling) operations in our building, concession operations, child care, fitness classes, gym programs and the cardio/weight room. To maintain the integrity and continued growth of the fitness memberships and classes, the Fitness Coordinator should be focusing her time on the fitness components of the building to ensure a positive revenue stream. Currently there is limited programming offered in the gym because we do not have the staff to do this. It would be our goal to have the fitness coordinator do additional programming in this area. The Rental Coordinator handles all rentals associated with banquet rooms, meeting rooms, gyms, birthday parties, and group rentals. In an average week she will spend 30 hours answering phone calls (40 per day average), outgoing calls, scheduled client meetings, walk-in clients and supplier meetings. This does not include the ongoing work and communication with brides who have already booked the room, which typically takes up to an additional 8 hours of the Rental Coordinator's time. Nor does it include contact with the Youth Athletic Associations, who are our number one gym renter, and take approximately 4 hours a week. It does not take long to see that the tasks of updating the web page, hotline, brochures and actively soliciting new business take a back seat. In order to generate additional membership sales, increase participation in fitness classes, and create more room rental dollars, we need to "free' up some time for both of these employees to do more marketing. This includes getting out to conduct presentations in the community and working on promotions and brochures. The new position would be reassigned the functions of concessions and point of sale operations from the Fitness Coordinator. In addition they would be assigned the group Blast reservations and birthday party logistics (obtaining supplies, prizes and food, ordering and picking up cakes) from the Rental Coordinator. This would permit both of our current employees to concentrate more fully on generating income. As a result of covering lunch breaks the front desk is solely manned for approximately two hours each day, during the prime lunch hour workout time. This new employee would also work the front desk during those times. In addition to the above tasks this position would also oversee the front desk operations, including part-time guest services staff to ensure consistency in service delivery. The addition of these two positions will help maintain the integrity of this community investment, help to provide a higher level of service and create the opportunity for staff to generate additional revenue. TO: Operations Committee FROM: Sandy Breuer, Community Center Manager RE: New Years Membership Promotion DATE: October 22, 2003 Please find attached a memo from the Fitness Coordinator, Jessica. Kropelnicict informing us of the promotion that the Eagan Community Center would like to run this upcoming January. It is our intention to keep the enrollment fees and monthly dues at their standard rate, but when an individual enrolls during the month of January they will receive the attached package for free. The value of this package is $90.00 and breaks down as follows: One hour personal training: $45.00 30 minute equipment orientation: $ 5.00 10 group fitness classes: $40.00 Total: $90.00 The actual cost to use is in staff time. There is a cost to us to offer these services, but this is designed to provide us an opportunity to offer one-on-one personal attention; thus building a relationship with our new members. It also allows us the opportunity to try and get a new member "hooked" on our classes, thus providing us with an additional revenue source for the fixture. In order to fully market this package, we may want to consider placing ads in the local papers. This is not a budgeted item and would need further discussion. We can market this package with our corporate contacts, current members, city hall kiosk, press releases, and by producing a commercial to air on our local cable station. When we offer promotional packages, it is our goal to offer a different type of promotion each time. For this promotion we do not want to discount the enrollment fee as we did with our pre -opening special. We want to stay away from our pre -opening offer, as that should remain our best enrollment offer and have been a "one time deal". In doing this we also do not disappoint the members who "bought" into our pre -opening promotion. It will be our goal to offer a summer promotional package as well, which will be introduced to you at a later date. As you can guess, summer months in a fitness center are "down" times and we will need to offer a promotion to encourage memberships. This membership special will be geared predominately toward students who are looking for a place to workout for the three months they are not in school / college. MEMORANDUM TO: OPERATIONS COMMITTEE FROM: JRESSICA KROPELNICKI, FITNESS COORDINATOR SUBJECT: NEW YEAR FITNESS PROMOTION DATE: 10/22/2003 The turn of the new year is the most crucial time to promote fitness programs and memberships to recruit new members.
