City expands residency proof for recreation center access
City officials say the residency verification policy for the recreation center was loosened to accept signed leases, easing access for EU students and renters. The change follows concern that leases were previously not accepted, with discussions emphasizing that state ID holders with a Douglas County address would qualify. Nonresidents can buy passes while residents of nearby communities may receive free passes funded by Douglas County sales tax.
