[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Then cut the budget and increase DPR staffing levels.  Most of us would agree that better hours for rec centers is a good thing.  However, an unfunded mandate from the same drunken sailors that throw wasteful sums of money on their pet projects is the worst of all worlds and will lead to unintended consequences.  It's emblematic of what a joke our lazy council and political class is.

It’s weird that the rec centers are open on days/times when utilization is light (like Monday mornings) but closed when many people are free for recreation (Sundays). [/quote]

Government employees don't work on weekends.[/quote]

They staff the outdoor pools on weekends during the Summer.

I agree with what others are saying.  First, you really only need the Rec centers open on Sundays from say November - end of March.  Second, you can close them for a day during the week.

All that said...my kid plays Sunday basketball games at Jellef, sometimes Sunday evening.  So, clearly not all rec centers are closed on Sundays.[/quote]

They do that through the summer youth employment program.[/quote]
