Students ask about using city‑owned lot by College Place High for post‑game bonfire; staff says multiple approvals required
Summary
Commissioners raised the possibility of using a city‑owned empty lot near College Place High School for a post‑game bonfire or gathering. Staff said the fire and police departments, city administrator and the liability carrier would need to be consulted before approving any event.
Near the end of the meeting a commissioner asked whether a city‑owned vacant lot adjacent to College Place High School might be available for a post‑game bonfire or school gathering.
The Clerk responded that the question would require coordination with multiple departments and the city's liability carrier, noting the fire department and police would likely need to be involved to ensure safety and compliance. "I right off the top of my head, I am not sure who you wanna talk to, but I could ask... To see," the Clerk said, adding that several departments would need to review the request.
Commissioners acknowledged that while the idea sounded fun, arranging an official event would involve significant work, including safety oversight and administrative approvals. Staff agreed to follow up and report back.
