V. Discussion Recreation Field Usage - Refunds Supervisor Ruggiero opened the discussion at 7:48 PM. The Town Comptroller has submitted a memo to the Town Board regarding recreation field usage. Over the summer, an outside organization reserved ball fields at Robinson Lane and paid the reservation fee. Three days prior to the event, the organization decided to cancel the event due to lack of participation. They are now asking for a refund of their deposit. Nonnally, the Town's fees are non- refundable. The Comptroller is asking for direction and clarification of what the policy is. Councilwoman McCarthy asked if there is anything in writing when people book a field. Supervisor Ruggiero asked Ralph Holt, Recreation Chairman, if there was a "no refund" clause on the application. Mr. Holt was not sure. Councilman Beale asked how often businesses reserve the ball fields. Mr. Holt replied that they are reserved all summer long. Supervisor Ruggiero asked if they pay up front. Mr. Holt replied that they do not. There is no consistent policy on how recreation handles these requests. Councilwoman McCarthy commented that it would be a good idea to draft a "non- refundability" clause. She doesn't have a problem with this particular instance because there were no other requests for the fields and there is no clause in place. Councilman Beale added that there needs to be standards. Before refusing a refund, the standardized procedures should be in place. Councilman Paoloni noted that this was why he made a motion on October 9th asking for a field utilization study. He went out to see the soccer fields after the rain store from the night before and the fields were in great condition. He also went out to Robinson Lane to find that 6 out of 15 fields were not being used. He has no problem with refunding the deposit in the absence of a contract and in the absence of data that the fields are in high demand. In addition to the contract that Mr. Holt has been asked to draft, he would like to see the field utilization study. He also recommended putting a full-time employee in the budget to manage the Town's fields. Councilman Beale asked if Mr. Reich planned on reserving the fields at a later time. Supervisor Ruggiero answered that he has not expressed that intention. Also, it would be better to refund it now so that it doesn't cart' over into the new fiscal year. Supervisor Ruggiero again asked Mr. Holt to develop the policy and submit it to the Board. Councilman Paoloni asked when he would be receiving the field utilization study. Supervisor Ruggiero replied that it was submitted and the Councilman should have received it. Councilman Beale made a motion to reimburse Victor T. Reich, the General Manager of Extra Innings-Wappinger, for his rental fee deposit of $500.00. The motion was seconded by Councilwoman McCarthy and passed unanimously. The discussion was then closed at 7:57 PM. Motion To: reimburse Victor T. Reich, General Manager of Extra Innings-Wappinger, in the amount of $500.00 RESULT: ADOPTED [UNANIMOUS] MOVER: William Beale, Councilman SECONDER: Maureen McCarthy, Councilwoman AYES: Joseph Ruggiero, William Beale, Maureen McCarthy, Joseph Paoloni ABSENT: Vincent Bettina Town of Wappinger Page 2 Printed 1012612007 Regular Meeting Minutes October 22, 2007 VI.
