(a)

As used herein, a person desiring to use or participate in any activity held in a recreation facility may prove that he is or is not a "resident" and resides or does not reside within the corporate city limits of Haltom City, Texas, by presenting the person in charge of the facility with one or more, if requested, of the following bearing that person's true and correct address:

(1)

A driver's license issued by the State of Texas showing the address of that person;

(2)

An envelope bearing a cancelled United States postal seal showing the address of that person;

(3)

A City of Haltom City water bill stub showing the address of that person;

(4)

A tax statement showing the address of that person;

(5)

A voter registration certificate showing the address of that person.

(b)

Any person not having any of the foregoing, or being unable to furnish same, may furnish proof that he is a "resident," as herein defined, by using any one of the above methods bearing that person's parents' or legal guardian's correct address. The director of parks and recreation, or his authorized representative, may make such further rules and regulations as are necessary for the uniform determination of those persons who are "residents" and "nonresidents" as herein defined.

(c)

Upon the determination that a person is a resident of the city, the director of parks and recreation or his authorized representative shall issue the person a city identification card. There shall be no fee for the initial issuance of an identification card to a resident, but $3.00 shall be charged for replacement of a lost or destroyed card. The card shall authorize the resident to participate in free play activities for no charge.

(d)

A person who is determined to be a nonresident may purchase an identification card for an annual fee of $25.00. The card shall authorize the nonresident to participate in free play activities for no additional charge. A fee of $3.00 will be charged for replacement of a lost or destroyed card.
