Summary
Council granted Type II determination and approved a consolidated funding application to the New York State Department of State (the 'New York Kicks' grant) for renovations to the Veterans Park soccer field; staff said the project will not host games this fall while renovations proceed.
The Common Council approved a Type II finding and a consolidated funding application to the New York State Department of State (referred to in staff comments as the 'New York Kicks' grant) for improvements to the soccer field at Veterans Park.
A council member said the city has submitted a consolidated funding application and that the improvements involve rehabilitation and replacement of existing fields consistent with routine maintenance. Staff said the grant application is nearly ready; the soccer league will play on a temporary site this fall while renovations proceed.
The resolution was placed on the consent agenda and approved by recorded vote. Councilors and staff said the project should be ready for field renovation so that the site will be available in the following year.
