SECTION THREE: BUILDING A CASE

3.13 OPERATING COST ANALYSIS (PROGRAM MODELS AND RESPECTIVE EXPENDITURES / REVENUES)

Recent work by Brian Connors, an aquatic expert in Ontario and a group of aquatic programming experts compares the expenditures and revenues that can be reasonably generated by 25M sport friendly pools. The work compared the capacity of 6, 7 and 8 lane pools to provide swim lessons, offer public swim opportunities and provide adequate time allotments to support aquatic sports and private rentals and the comparative impact on net deficit. The following table summarizes the findings and observes that 8 lane 25M sport friendly pools would have less of an operating deficit due to the increased lesson capacity and the ability of swim lessons to generate a surplus if direct costs are considered.
