Charge cover 85 per cent of centre costs

Charges levied by the Peninsula Leisure Centre are covering 85 per cent of its costs, according to Central Coast Council.

Council's Leisure and Lifestyle unit's operational target for the year was to deliver "a high quality leisure facility and program at Peninsula Leisure Centre that achieves an 85 per cent cost recovery rate by June 30, 2018".

The Council's desired outcome for the Centre was to efficiently "deliver community facilities that meet the community's needs".

Acting chief financial officer Ms Viv Louie told the December 18 council meeting that "cost recovery" at the centre related to maintenance and general costs associated with its day-to-day operations.
