Signal Mountain approves youth baseball memorandum of agreement with amendment
Summary
Council approved a memorandum of agreement giving Signal Mountain Youth Baseball League priority use of town facilities, with an amendment to paragraph 6 requested by town staff; council discussed termination and insurance requirements before approving the MOA with no recorded opposition.
The Signal Mountain Town Council voted March 9 to authorize a memorandum of agreement (MOA) between the town and Signal Mountain Youth Baseball League, LLC that grants the league priority use of town facilities, subject to a staff‑requested change to paragraph 6.
Councilmember (mover) put forward the motion to approve the MOA as amended, noting the town manager had identified the needed change; the motion was seconded and the council discussed whether the town should include termination language if the league fails to meet agreement requirements. One council member asked whether the town could terminate the agreement if the league did not provide insurance or otherwise failed to meet its obligations; staff said the town would withhold facility use without required certificates of insurance.
After clarifying questions and brief discussion, the council voted in favor; no opposition was recorded in the meeting transcript. Council directed staff to finalize the amended MOA consistent with the town manager's suggestions and to ensure that insurance and renewal requirements are enforced as part of the agreement.
