An effort will be made to provide advance notice of any future fee increase to user groups participating in CRPD' s field allocation process. Huffer expressed concerns about approving a two-year schedule without having the exact fees for the second year available. Callis clarified that the fee schedule must be approved annually, and no changes would be made in year two until such changes are presented to and approved by the Board. Cusworth asked how CRPD's fees compare to neighboring agencies now. Callis asserted that rates paid by in -district residents are competitive with nearby cities and special districts, but the rates paid by other user group classifications are still very low in comparison. Lange requested information relating to filming fee revenue. Hare reported that the District typically sees several thousand dollars in revenue in a given year. There has been little to no filming fee revenue since the pandemic began.
