INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM

DATE: August 10, 1998 FILE :
SUBJECT;
Allocation of CDBG Funds for
Softball Field Improvements at
REFERENCES: 1501 NW 3 Street.(Llttle Havana
ENCLOSURES: Target Area)
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the
City Manager to allocate sixty thousand ($60,000) dollars from the City Wide Streets and Sidewalks
Projects, Project Code 799226, of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) 24th program
year funds to install sod over the portion of the field located at 1501 NW 3rd Street (Little Havana
Target Area) that is currently covered with gravel. The funds will be used also to install a fence around
the perimeter of the field to protect and secure the property and to act as a security measure for the low-
income youth using this city property for baseball leagues and residents of the community using the field
for other authorized events.
BACKGROUND:
Over the past several years a field that is designated as a parking lot for the Orange Bowl Stadium,
located at 1501 NW 3rd Street has also been used for authorized community fairs, non -sporting events
and neighborhood baseball leagues. The field has a functional baseball diamond and is scheduled for use
when there are no events at the stadium. Approximately 30 % of the field does not have grass and the
exposed gravel poses a danger of falling and injury, especially to the children involved in the events. This
possibility of injury exposes the City to unnecessary liability.
To minimize the City's exposure to liability it is recommended that sod be installed over the gravel area.
This will additionally improve the appearance of the field to the neighboring communities. The installation
of the fence is recommended to provide some security for both participants and on -lookers involved in
the events and the baseball leagues. The funds are available in the City Wide Streets and Sidewalks
allocation from the 24th Year CDBG funding and will not impact on the City's General Fund.
