Those who want to play in Menlo Park, but don't live in the city, should expect to keep paying a 35 percent surcharge to participate in recreation programs since the Parks and Recreation Commission has thrown its support behind the higher fee.
The commission also recommended increasing the non-resident surcharge for the gymnastics program from 25 percent to 35 percent.
However, commissioners suggested making registration a bit easier for those living in unincorporated Menlo Park by allowing them to start signing up three days after residents may do so, but three days sooner than those residing entirely outside Menlo Park. The new registration category will be launched in August.
