Park Commission approves field scheduling for NFL Youth flag football and names Clearpond committee representative; minutes accepted
Summary
The Lakeville Park Commission appointed a parks representative to the Clearpond engineering committee, approved a four‑hour Saturday block for NFL Youth flag football and accepted minutes from the Dec. 5 meeting with amendments.
The Lakeville Park Commission recorded several formal actions during its Jan. 9 meeting.
- Appointment to Clearpond engineering committee: Commissioners moved and seconded a motion to designate Britney (last name not specified in the transcript) as the parks representative on the Clearpond engineering committee. The motion passed by voice vote.
- Field scheduling for youth program: The commission approved a motion to offer NFL Youth Flag Football a four-hour block on Saturdays, time to be determined, at the Ted Williams Camp fields. The motion authorized staff to work with the league to set the exact hours after coordinating with existing field users. The motion passed by voice vote.
- Approval of minutes: Commissioners approved the Dec. 5 minutes as amended, after clarifying the correct seconder on an earlier motion and noting that only one AED had been purchased rather than two as previously recorded.
- Schedule set for lead groups meeting: The commission set a pre-season meeting with league leads for Saturday, Feb. 15 at 9 a.m. to review applications, fees, schedules and any capital or insurance questions ahead of final budget submissions.
Why it matters: The scheduling decisions and committee appointments set the process for field use and project oversight in the near term. The Feb. 15 meeting will feed into the commission’s budget requests and help clarify league fee changes being considered for 2025.
What’s next: Staff to notify applicants of the Feb. 15 pre-season meeting, to place Britney on the Clearpond committee mailing lists and to coordinate with leagues on the final Saturday hours for the NFL Youth program.
