Subject:Revised Room Rental Fees, Montgomery's Inn
Purpose:
To bring rental fees at Montgomery's Inn more in line with operating costs.
Funding Sources, Financial Implications and Impact Statement:
Anticipated additional revenue of $2,000.00 per annum.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the room rental rates at Montgomery's Inn be increased in accordance
with the report (January 11, 1999) from the Heritage Co-ordinator.
Comments and/or Discussion and/or Justification:
At its meeting of January 12, 1999, the Etobicoke Historical Board had for consideration the
attached report from the Heritage Co-ordinator, regarding a proposed increase in room rental
fees at Montgomery's Inn. In light of increased budget restraints and pressures, and in keeping
with the Board's ongoing commitment to increase revenues, the Board unanimously endorsed
the Co-ordinator's recommendation.
Conclusions:
As noted in the report, the rental fees for Montgomery's Inn were last adjusted in 1994. The
Board's thrust to increase revenues by actively promoting rentals has also had an impact on
operating costs. The minimal increases proposed will be more in line with fees charged at
other facilities and favourably impact the Inn's operating budget.
