Council approves Houston Ballfield use with insurance and donation request
Summary
The council granted permission for Houston Ballfield organizers to use town fields, permitting them to charge teams and parking but asking for written permission, adequate insurance and a suggested donation to support the town's summer-league maintenance costs.
The council reviewed a request from Houston Ballfield organizers to use town fields and approved the request with conditions. Members noted the organizer intends to charge participating teams and parking; the town's staff recommended receiving a written permission slip and adequate insurance coverage. The council also suggested the organizer consider donating proceeds to the town's summer league to support field maintenance costs.
Council members voted to approve the request and asked staff to obtain written permission and proof of significant insurance coverage before events begin. The motion included a directive to ensure any necessary waiver or additional insured documentation is on file with the town's insurer.
