Council introduces ordinance requiring security deposits for Grekoski Park Baseball Field reservations
Summary
Ordinance 2026-07 would set field-use fees for Grekoski Park and require refundable security deposits ($250–$1,000 depending on number of reservations) to cover damage, maintenance or unpaid balances; ordinance introduced on March 2.
The Borough Clerk read Ordinance 2026-07 by title on March 2, which would amend Chapter 155 (Fees) to require refundable security deposits for non–Borough-sponsored reservations of Grekoski Park Baseball Field. The ordinance sets usage fees ($150 per two-hour increment for resident/nonprofit users; $200 for non-resident/for-profit) and security deposits: $250 for one to five reservations, $500 for six to ten, and $1,000 for eleven or more.
The ordinance requires fees and deposits to be collected up front and allows refunds for dates paid but not used due to cancellations or rainouts. The measure was introduced for later consideration; council members voted to introduce the ordinance on first reading.
