Impact analysis
Taxpayers subsidized roughly $60,000 in Showmobile use last year; a new fee schedule could recover most of that cost.
Taxpayers benefit if fees cover costs; nonprofits that currently use it free or cheap would face new charges.
Nonprofits and civic groups that have relied on free or low-cost Showmobile use would face higher fees or loss of access.
