West Deer officials agree to lease the municipality’s recreation grounds to youth sports groups

Deer Lakes Youth Sports Teams will now have a home in two of West Deer’s parks.

The canton has approved annual rents to the association.

Deer Lakes youth associations of baseball, softball, football, soccer and lacrosse have been approved for nearly rents at Bairdford Park and Nike Site Park.

Leases require a symbolic payment of $1 consistent with the year. The actual payment will be in the form of equity and equipment, having agreed to manage the maintenance and maintenance component in their respective fields.

Youth baseball and softball groups will use Bairdford Park, while football and lacrosse groups will play at Nike Site Park. Parts of both parks have been leased to the youth football association.

“This is in an effort to make all of our youth associations more productive,” said Arlind Karpuzi, president of West Deer Supervisors.

Leases will be automatically renewed each year unless a specific youth agreement or canton provides the other with written notice of termination.

Bairdford Park is at 50 Bairdford Park Road, off Saxonburg Boulevard, and Nike Site Park is on Route 910.

According to Jay Fraser, president of the Youth Baseball Association, it’s essential.

After disagreements last August between the municipality and youth baseball over the organization that would pay what it would pay at Bairdford Park baseball fields, Fraser said he was excited about the lease and appointments his agreement has established with the municipality for more than five months.

The Youth Baseball Association will cover the electricity charge, which was the challenge in August.

“We are very excited about the long-term Deer Lakes Baseball and the long-term Deer Lakes Baseball in Bairdford Park,” Fraser said. “Thank you to the municipality for running with us to implement this. “

The municipality’s director, Daniel Mator, said rents guaranteed youth organizations a position to play. If others use a specific box, for example, for a collection set, the arrangement that rents that box asks them to leave.

Mator said youth organizations provide valuable service to other people in the municipality by giving local youth a position to play.

“For them to use the fields they want, those rents are important,” Mator said.

The municipality will tone the boxes and bring out the overall maintenance of the park. The youth baseball arrangement will be guilty of maintaining things like fences and shelters. Other youth organizations will also pay their rents for maintenance and improvement of the boxes.

“We are the ones who use those things and we have a responsibility to keep them,” Fraser said.

The Youth Baseball Association intends to invest approximately $30,000 in the fields for repairs. Planned innovations include improvements to the existing concession post, an improvement of land and grass within the field, and the installation of a windshield in the main field, B1, for fences. .

“We are very pleased that after a long era of time, despite everything, we have been able to implement this agreement and that we as an organization will not have to worry about having to locate a new house for Deer Lakes Baseball. “Fraser said.

Deer Lakes Youth Softbol also issued a relative to its Bairdford Park percentage: “The Deer Lakes Softball Association is pleased to have a written agreement with the Municipality for the use of Bairdford Park Lands. This will strengthen our appointments with the canton and allow young athletes in our network to participate in youth softball. We are satisfied to have a rental agreement in place. »
