There are finite resources for fields in Roseville and it is a balance to get field space for all of the teams who utilize them during the summer. Staff is committed to working through the situation with the Association. Chair Hoag asked for the makeup of the Roseville Fastpitch Association. Ms. Doefler responded that it is all of School District 623. She added that the Association has reached out to the additional District 623 cities (Little Canada, Shoreview, Lauderdale, and Falcon Heights) for fields. However, the cities all want to charge money for field use while Roseville provides them free of charge. Vice-Chair Dahlstrom disclosed that he is on the board of the Fastpitch Association. He shared that as the Association is relatively small they have moved away from renting fields from the surrounding cities to keep the costs down. In addition, he noted that the Association has concerns with some of the conditions of the fields in Roseville (balls making odd jumps, etc.). If necessary, staff offered to follow up with surrounding cities that the Association haskids participating from to explain why Roseville provides fields free of charge and encouragethem to provide resources to the Association as appropriate. 3) APPROVAL OF MINUTES – FEBRUARY 2, 2021MEETING Vice-ChairDahlstrommoved to approve the minutes.
