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 9, 2007 through April 3, 2007. Games will be played on
Tuesdays at 9:00 a.m. This request was presented to the Parks and Recreation
Commission on November 21, 2006. In 2006, there were more than 100 seniors who
participated in this league. Coachella Valley Recreation and Park District (CVRPD)
provide 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.
City Staff and the Parks and Recreation Commission recommend that the City Council
approve the Palm Desert Senior Softball League's request for ball field usage, and to
waive the fees associated with field preparation.
