The Common Council voted to renew a five-year lease with the Fort Jackson Bocce Club for property on Erie Terrace at $1 per year, effective July 1, 2026, through July 1, 2031. Council members and staff said the new draft clarified that the site is city parkland and incorporated a nondiscrimination clause requested when the item was tabled previously.
A club representative explained how reservations are handled: the club president (Rick Sargent) maintains a calendar and members should contact him to check availability. Council members described the revision as a routine renewal with clearer park-use language and an explicit nondiscrimination provision.
