Does the Park District track resident and non-resident programming and memberships?

Yes. Oak Brook Park District uses Active Network LLC (ActiveNet)  for registration software.  ActiveNet has over 1,500 clients, including Elmhurst and Naperville Park Districts and 34 Illinois park districts.  The software generates reports showing the number of residents and non-resident participants in programs and memberships. 
 

How are program, membership and rental fees calculated for resident and non-resident fees?

Fee determinations are based on several factors, including program/activity expenses, consumer demand, competitive factors (including benchmarking costs against other Park Districts), the extensive knowledge and experience that the District’s professional staff has with park and recreation trends and the specific programs, memberships and rentals in question. Membership definitions and fee schedules are transparently detailed in sections 5.5 (Recreation Programs, Memberships, and Facility Fees Policies and Definitions) and 6.1 (Definitions for the Use of and Membership in Park District Facilities and Recreation Programs) of the Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual.
