Date: May 8, 2024
To: Christina Calderon, Community Services Deputy Director
From: Maureen Archuleta, Community Services Supervisor
Subject: Swim & Water services at Fritz Burns Pool
CC: Barb Adair, Assistant General Manager
Our vision is that through a community collaborative approach, Desert Recreation District will provide quality, barrier -
free, and safe recreational activities. These activities will contribute to the overall wellness of the citizens of the
Coachella Valley, encourage healthy lifestyles and positive out -of -school activities, and facilitate, coordinate, and plan for
recreation facilities and trails.
This proposal reaffirms Desert Recreations District's interest in continuing our formal working partnership with your
agency to operate Aquatic programs at Fritz Burns Pool. Based upon your feedback on the attached proposal, Desert
Recreation District has provided you with projected expense details.
It is essential to provide the city with data driven options that affect the fiscal impact of the operations of Fritz Burns Pool.
As we continue to track data on user trends, peak times, and program statistics, we feel it is our responsibility to provide
the city with operational alternatives. It is difficult for municipalities to balance their budgets when the increase in user
expectation is high, and we continue to face budget constraints. We have included Option (1) 12-month full operation (100
cost -recovery of FT Aquatic Specialist year 6 of agreement direct cost); Option (2) reduced 12-month operation (85%
cost -recovery of Aquatic Specialist 15% absorbed DRD); Option (3) 9-month operation (75% cost -recovery of Aquatic
Specialist 25% absorbed DRD) for your review and consideration.
Per the Desert Recreation District Fees & Charges policy and manual - pricing and cost recovery, the District's recreation
services are designed to complement those available throughout the community, ensuring all residents have a reasonable
opportunity to participate in recreation. For the development of the appropriate fee, the following three distinct
categories of programming have been established: Full Subsidy, Merit Pricing, and Full Cost Recovery. This proposal falls
into the Full Cost Recovery category. Programs in this category are intended to respond to the expressed need of the
consumer for a particular recreation service. In setting prices for these services, the intent is to price the activity
competitively within the local market and to recover all direct and indirect costs associated with said services. Direct costs
include direct program staff, materials and supplies, and immediate administrative overhead (Aquatics Specialist). Indirect
costs include administrative overhead and facility use surcharge and shall be calculated at 15% of direct cost.
Programming will allow for diverse service offerings and activities, including swim lessons, recreational swimming, adaptive
swim programs, competitive swim team use, Master Swim Club, drop -in lap swimming, scheduled neighborhood summer
camps, water aerobics classes -addition of tidal wave aquatic fit in pool bikes, and other community pool rentals. Other
aquatic -related community services will include training for First Aid, CPR and Lifeguard/Instructor, as well as other
community outreach programs to expand the benefits of participation in aquatics and water safety. We are also
introducing a new Annual Aquatic Membership. Desert Recreation District (DRD), as well as Desert Recreation Foundation
(DRF) contribute indirectly (which is not part of the fiscal impact to this agreement), donated scholarships that will benefit
the La Quinta community.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT
SERVICES WITH DESERT RECREATION DISTRICT TO TEMPORARILY RELOCATE
FRITZ BURNS POOL PROGRAMS TO PAWLEY POOL FAMILY AQUATIC COMPLEX
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Amendment No. 1 to Agreement for Contract Services with Desert Recreation
District to temporarily relocate Fritz Burns pool programs to Pawley Pool Family Aquatic
Complex; and authorize the City Manager to execute the amendment.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On May 21, 2024, Desert Recreation District (DRD) was awarded a contract for
year-round management and operations of the Fritz Burns Pool (Pool).
Pool programs will be impacted by the Fritz Burns Park Improvement Project No.
2021-02 (Project) beginning November 1, 2025, and concluding May 31, 2026.
The proposed Amendment No. 1 (Attachment 1) allows DRD to temporarily
relocate the Fritz Burns pool programs to Pawley Pool Family Aquatic Complex
(Complex) for the duration of the Project and allocates funding to cover the
additional costs of organizing programs and maintenance at the Complex.
FISCAL IMPACT
Relocating the Pool programs to the Complex will result in additional expenditures for
fiscal year (FY) 2025-26 due to an increase in janitorial staffing and maintenance. The
anticipated increase in expenditures is approximately $17,415 per month as detailed in
the table below, for a total of 7 months, from November 1, 2025, to May 31, 2026.
Staff Salaries & Travel $2,300
Utilities (water, electricity, gas) $6,355
Chemicals (chlorine, acid, alkaline) $7,930
5% Contingency $830
Total Monthly Cost $17,415
Total Cost for 7 Months of Operations $121,905
193
CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 15
PULLED FROM CONSENT CALENDAR AND
CONSIDERED AS BUSINESS SESSION ITEM NO. 4
The additional cost will be applied to the overall contract for Pool operations for FY 2025-
26. Relocating pool programs will create additional staffing, utilities, and maintenance
costs; however, the City will offset a significant portion of these expenses by using funds
that would have been used for the maintenance contractor for the Pool, which will not be
maintained during the Project construction. The amended contract sum to the agreement
with DRD will increase from $1,092,649 to a not to exceed amount of $1,214,554. Funding
will be budgeted in the Pool Programming Account No. 101-3003-60184.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
On May 21, 2024, DRD was awarded a contract for year-round management and
operations of the Pool, comprised of the facilitation of youth and adult swim programs
including water aerobics, swim lessons, movies, and events. Starting in September 2025,
significant improvements are planned for Fritz Burns Park as part of a comprehensive
master plan, approved by Council in September 2023. This multi-phased Project
addresses priorities identified by the community and will result in enhancements to the
pool and its amenities, including a new water playground, expanded pool deck with shade
and seating, and an upgraded pool equipment area. The improvements are designed to
better serve residents and support recreational programming.
Pool construction will begin November 1, 2025, and continue through May 31, 2026,
during which time Pool operations will be suspended.. In order to continue offering aquatic
programs during this period, staff proposes temporarily relocating all Pool activities and
programming to the Pawley Pool Family Aquatic Complex in Indio, California. This
temporary move will allow uninterrupted access to swimming lessons and other aquatics-
based services.
ALTERNATIVES
Council may elect to modify and/or deny approval of the proposed Amendment No. 1;
however, this would interrupt pool services and programs for the duration of the Project.
