Council authorizes presenting proposed American Legion ball‑field agreement to property owners
Summary
Council agreed to present a proposed agreement — drafted by the borough solicitor — to the American Legion outlining a potential purchase and integration of the American Legion ball fields into the borough parks system, with outside funding and private donations expected to cover purchase costs.
Borough Manager Cindy Wells said the borough is continuing to research purchasing the American Legion ball fields and combining them with the borough parks system. Solicitor Wachter is preparing the agreement; Wells said the borough would cover any closing costs if needed but anticipated funding would come from outside sources and a private donor.
Council voted to approve presenting 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; minutes record the motion as carried unanimously.
