Request for Field Usage Letter
By Minute Motion: Approve the Palm Desert Senior Softball League request for
field usage and waive field preparation fees.
Discussion:
Representatives from the Palm Desert Senior Softball league, Mr. Paul Jones and Mr.
Larry Strohmaier, approached City Staff with a request to utilize four fields at the Civic
Center Park from January 10, 2006 through April 11, 2006. Games will be played on
Tuesdays at 9:00 am. Mr. Jones and Mr. Strohmaier presented their request to the
Parks and Recreation Commission on November 2, 2005. They stated that in 2005,
there were more than 100 seniors who participated in this league. Coachella Valley
Recreation and Park District (CVRPD) provides the field preparation services (dragging
and marking) for these fields. In the past, CVRPD has only charged the City for the cost
of field preparation which is $30 per field. In 2005, CVRPD prepared 44 fields at a total
cost of $1,320.
