Motion passed in favor of accepting the minutes for March 16th, 2009 by a <br />vote of 5 - 0- 0. <br />J. Feudo introduced Susan Simeola to the Recreation Committee. Sue is the new clerk for the <br />Recreation Division. <br />Field Use Policy and Guidelines <br />B. Winne spoke to the committee about the field scheduling process. The process is an evolved <br />policy over the years. Although there is no a formal black and white process, there has been a good <br />sense from the Recreation Committee of how the fields should be allocated. For the most part the <br />Recreation Administrator is operating without of much direct guidance. The committee has given <br />the Rec. Administrator a frame work to work within. We now have a situation in which two <br />organizations (Soccer and Lacrosse) have challenged this process and are asking for some degree of <br />relief. <br />Mary Ellen Stolecki entered the meeting at 7:10 PM. <br />Kate Kaminer entered the meeting at 7:15 PM. <br />B. Winne discussed the roll of the Recreation Committee as it pertained to the discussion later this <br />meeting and possible outcomes. There are three basic possible outcomes. First, the committee <br />could make a decision and give direction to the Rec. Administrator to take action on the decision. <br />Secondly, the committee could take the information under advisement and not take action.
