Litchfield Residents Invited to Discuss New Recreation Facility Fees on March 26

The Litchfield Recreation Commission will hold a public hearing to discuss new recreation facility fees. The hearing is set for Tuesday, March 26, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. in the Town Office Conference Room. The aim is to revise the town fee schedule, effective from May 1, 2024.

Certain groups will not have to pay to use the town's recreation facilities. These include Litchfield town and school organizations, local non-profit organizations with a majority of Litchfield residents, and local community groups such as cultural, recreational, and charitable organizations.

However, some groups may have to pay a fee. These include recreational organizations with less than 50% Litchfield participants, local community groups, and private promoters sponsored by certain groups. For-profit groups are asked to donate part of their profit to the league or recreation fund.

Other non-Litchfield based groups, like religious or political organizations, or private promoters seeking profit, may also have to pay a fee. The rules for these fees and the fee schedule will be discussed at the public hearing.

For more information, people can visit the town's website or contact the Recreation Commission. The proposed changes aim to manage the use of the town's recreational facilities and encourage community participation.
