The center was paying the old rates for almost a year, despite the increase town wide. There was a room count discrepancy of 32 rooms being charged when there are only 31 rooms; as well as, certain areas that were NOT charged in the past, ARE being charged now, however, there are still areas of the center that are NOT being charged that should be by town ordinances.
