Council approves presenting proposed agreement to American Legion on ball field purchase
Summary
The borough will present a proposed agreement to the American Legion for review as part of an ongoing effort to purchase and add the Legion ball fields to the borough parks system; solicitation of outside funding and a private donor was discussed.
Borough Manager Cindy Wells reported the borough is researching the process to purchase the American Legion ball fields and incorporate them into the borough parks system, with outside funding and a private donor anticipated to cover acquisition costs. Solicitor Wachter is preparing the agreement and council voted to present the proposed agreement to the American Legion for their review.
The motion to present the agreement was made by Councilor Steadman and seconded by Councilor Osborn; it carried unanimously. Manager Wells said the borough would cover any closing costs if needed, and the agreement would be between the borough and the American Legion rather than a third party.
