REPORT: At the October 15, 2007 Special Council meeting a report was approved allowing the Kitchener Minor Boys Softball Association permission to construct a concession and picnic shelter in Wilson Park. The original report CSD-07-078 referenced a 2 year agreement. Based on the substantial financial commitment of the KMBSA, the Community Services Department and Legal Services Division are in agreement to extend the agreement to a longer term. Kitchener Minor Boys Softball Association is providing a substantial commitment to the Wilson Park Diamonds. In their decades of operation they have been financially responsible and are committed to the youth and families they serve through softball. The agreement should reflect a term that allows this group to operate and benefit from their commitment. All parties involved in this partnership are in agreement that a 10 year term with an option to renew fora 5 year term is very satisfactory.
