Rec fees going up for residents
“For 6-year-old kids who go every day, an increase from $1 to $2 is a lot”
Starting next year, residents will pay more to ride a ferry to Greenwich's islands and to play a round of golf, while non-residents will pay less to enter town beaches.
Following debate on a handful of individual fee increases, the Board of Selectmen yesterday unanimously approved more than 60 new rates that the town Department of Parks and Recreation will begin charging Jan. 1.
The department generates about $3.5 million in annual revenue by charging people for an array of services, including renting tennis courts and beach lockers, hosting birthday parties at a skatepark and placing advertisement signs on a golf course.
