Title

Discussion of issues relating to the Parks and Recreation Commission Board’s recommendation in regards to fundraising options for the Pony Baseball League parking privilege and gate fees for DPISD JV Girl’s Softball Tournament as a fundraiser.

Summary

Both items were in discussion at the June and July’s PARC meetings with request to staff to research other organizations use of the proposed items. Staff discussed at the July PARC meeting the research that was obtained.

Discussion occurred that fundraisers were permitted, but that selling parking spaces could create issues due to limited parking options at the complex. Motion was made to not approve or allow the sale of designated parking spaces as a fundraiser due to limited parking options.

The recommendation was made by the Commission to City Council to allow DPISD to charge a gate fee for their JV softball tournament for one year only.

Fiscal/Budgetary Impact

None at this time.
