At the Sept. 9 meeting, Jim McNulty raised safety and liability concerns about the baseball field netting on Windsor Avenue, describing large holes and tree growth through the nets that now allow balls to reach the street. McNulty said a replacement quote for the full field had been in the neighborhood of $7,000. "So they've got massive holes, and they really don't cover the area. So when the guys are playing down there, if the ball goes, you know, now you get a free shot to the street and cars like that," McNulty said.

The board asked whether the vendor who had done past repairs could provide a turnaround estimate in time for the October council meeting; staff agreed to pursue an updated quote. Public Works Director Jeff noted past repairs had been made on parts of the field but the Windsor Avenue side had not been recently addressed, and recent storms have worsened the condition.

Board members discussed liability and user agreements: the borough's insurance language and whether replacement should be covered by the borough or by the organized users under user agreements. The board said staff would check insurance implications and whether the expense should be included in the borough budget or routed through user agreements or sponsors.

Next steps: staff to ask the past vendor for an estimate and to clarify insurance and cost‑allocation questions so the repair can be submitted for the October council meeting if required. The board did not take a formal vote to authorize immediate repair at this meeting; it requested cost and insurance information.

(Ending) The board asked staff to return with a vendor estimate and insurance guidance before the next council budget deadline.
