An interesting number is that the Claremont Community Center, with one pool, has 2023 budgeted costs of some $1.4M I would hope that there was a detailed review and discussion with Claremont as to why their costs are 4+ times as much as the estimate to run the HUB. A reconciliation must be made, especially with uninterested M'boro third parties preparing an accounting. Should not be by people in M'boro that are invested in seeing the HUB pass. The Claremont model is what I have been saying for a while...membership and usage charges must offset the annual operating costs. Not sure how much of Claremont's costs are offset with these fees. Time to really hone in on the numbers.
