Defining Success Of Water Park

For private developers, the definition of success is simple … to make money! For municipal waterparks, however, the definition of success can be:

Earn revenues that cover its costs and any future expansions.
Earn revenues that help pay for other subsidized facilities within the park system.
A reduction in the subsidy of the existing obsolete pool. It doesn’t have to make money as long as it’s losing less money.
All of these are appropriate definitions of success, but each one affects the outcome of the waterpark design. Determining your definition of success will help make sure your goals are in-line with realities.
