General Governmental Revenues by Source - Last Ten Fiscal Years<br />

An important indicator of the financial stability of the <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> is the split between revenue sources.<br />

As shown below, the two main revenue sources for the <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> are taxes and charges for services.<br />

The measurement of these two sources of revenue is something the <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> tracks on a regular<br />

basis. Extremely modest growth in tax revenue has been the trend the last several years and is<br />

expected to continue for many years to come. Because of this, the growth in <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> revenue will<br />

come from charges for services.<br />

In November 2013, the <strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> opened FitNation, a 75,000 square foot fitness facility. Since the<br />

opening of FitNation, charges for services have become the largest source of revenue for the <strong>Park</strong><br />

<strong>District</strong> with a 75% increase from 2013 to <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
