Balaton Community Center rental fees were raised at Monday’s Balaton City Council meeting. Now, after hearing community members’ concerns, the council is reconsidering.
Prior to this year, rental fees were based on kitchen use. Currently, the rental fee stands at $75 for any one-day event, no matter how long the renters use the space. At Monday’s meeting, local karate instructor Jamie Bauleke asked for a lower rate.
The rental fee was increased this year to help cover the cost of paying to heat the building and cleaning costs.
