Lid, Legislative Assistant COUNCIL FILE NO. 10-1076: SURVEY FINDINGS FROM SCHOOL-PARKS SHARED USE STUDY The Department of Recreation and Parks (Depaliment) began its shared use relationship with Los Angeles Unified School District (LA US D) in 1967 with an agreement for the construction and operation of a pool at Venice High SchooL The pool was subsequently built by the City on LAUSD property. The Department cunently has 36 formal agreements with LAUSD through Joint Use Agreements (JUA) and License Agreements. An additional 199 school or park sites have a shared use relationship through a permit or an informal reciprocal agreement. Use fees have historically not been collected from or paid to LAUSD under these arrangements_ However, recent discussions with LAUSD have indicated that this may change in the future, as LA USD is considering a policy change that would impose use fees on the Department for use of non­ JUA related school sites. , Besides LAUSD schools, the Depmtment also has working relationships with private schools and independent · chmter schools not under LAUSD.
