(1983 CC, c 15, art 5, sec 15-54.)15-54 Article 6. Credit Against User Fees for Private Improvements to Parks and Recreational Facilities. Section 15-55. Purpose. Private citizens and civic groups wish to make improvements to County parks and recreational facilities to enable the general public to benefit from those improvements and wish to make such improvements by advancing the cost of improvements from their own funds. Budgetary constraints limit the County in making improvements which the department of parks and recreation wishes to make to its parks and recreational facilities. The council wishes to provide a means by which private citizens and civic groups may be encouraged to make such improvements with the approval of the department of parks and recreation. The council wishes to provide a means by which such private citizens or civic groups may, after donating the completed improvements to the County for the use and benefit of the general public, receive a setoff against certain user fees imposed by the department of parks and recreation for the use of the facility at which the improvements are made. (1983 CC, c 15, art 6, sec 15-55.)15-55 Section 15-56. Procedure. A credit against user fees of the department of parks and recreation may be allowed as provided in this section.
