Frankfort amends youth sports MOA to one-year term while keeping subsidy schedule
Summary
The Board amended and approved renewal of the Frankfort/Franklin County Youth Sports Association facilities MOA to a one-year term; the approved subsidy schedule remains $40,000 in year one, $30,000 in year two and $25,000 in year three, but the Board limited the current renewal to one year.
The Board considered a proposed renewal of the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the Frankfort/Franklin County Youth Sports Association (FFYSA). Staff presented a draft three‑year MOA with a stepped city subsidy ($40,000 for year one, $30,000 for year two and $25,000 for year three) and flexible concession-management language. After brief discussion, Commissioner Leesa Unger moved — and Commissioner Kelly May seconded — an amendment to make the MOA a one‑year renewal while keeping the subsidy levels and other terms unchanged; the motion passed unanimously.
Why this matters: The shorter term keeps funding decisions in the Board’s near-term oversight while preserving the proposed subsidy schedule as a starting point for future negotiations or amendments.
Next steps: The Mayor was authorized to execute the one‑year MOA; staff will continue evaluating concession management options (in‑house, vendor, or FFYSA-run) and may return with recommendations.
