CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICIES
Twenty-five percent (25%) of the registration fee will be charged to cover administrative and processing costs. The City will process all refunds  according to the bill-paying schedule.  There will be no cash refunds.  No refunds will be made except:
  • When a class/program/special event is canceled or closed by the Parks, Recreation & Arts Department due to low enrollment or other circumstances. In this case, the City will provide a 100% refund.
  • When the refund is requested at least fourteen (14) days in advance of the class/program/special event, provided it does not reduce the proper participation level below the required minimum.
  • When participants become ill (you must present a doctor’s statement) and notify the Parks, Recreation & Arts Department. However, you will be assessed the 25% administration fee and the remaining fee will be prorated as long as your cancellation does not reduce the participation level below the required minimum.
FEES & CHARGES POLICY
The City of Chesterfield Parks, Recreation & Arts Department prides itself on providing a wide variety of recreational services to its citizens. The Department recognizes its responsibility to provide recreational opportunities that contribute toward the quality of life in Chesterfield. Realizing that tax dollars alone should not subsidize programs and facilities, fees and charges have been established to help offset existing costs.  The prime objective of these guidelines is to develop a policy to efficiently direct our Department toward a more consistent and effective method of establishing fees and charges while, at the same time, maintaining a high degree of equity for Chesterfield citizens.
