Coquitlam's One Pass rate goes up next year

It won't cost any more to take a dip, go for a skate or workout at a Coquitlam facility in the new year — except if you have One Pass.

It won't cost any more to take a dip, go for a skate or workout at a Coquitlam facility in the new year.

But, if you use the One Pass system, you'll be paying slightly more for your monthly card come April 1.

The price of the one-, four- and 12-month cards will bump up at least a quarter although single, 10-visit and 50-visit admissions will remain the same.

According to the revised fees and charges schedule, of which Coquitlam city council approved Monday, rentals for community rooms, pools, ice sheets and dry floors will also increase a bit.

Still, council's longstanding policy to rent out fields, sports courts and track amenities to minor sports organization will go unchanged: Youth athletic groups (soccer, football, baseball, etc.) don't pay a cent while community adults teams will shell out $37.25 an hour next year — a twoonie more.

In total, the rise in fees and charges — from parks and rec, planning, building permits and other city departments — will add another $409,900 to the city's bottom line in the 2016 budget.
