Title
APPROVAL OF PARKS INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE SCHOOL BOARD AND SARASOTA COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
Description
Since 1996, Sarasota County School Board and Sarasota County Board of County Commissioners have implemented an agreement through which school facilities and fields at Booker Middle, Sarasota Middle, Pine View, and Venice Middle have been made available for use by the citizens of Sarasota County. However, the limited scope and specifically identified schools that were available for use as park and recreational use have limited the use of this agreement. This new agreement will provide greater opportunities for the residents of Sarasota County to use school facilities and fields for park or recreational use. In doing so, this agreement establishes a framework for the joint use, maintenance, and management of school facilities as recreational and sport venues between Sarasota County Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources and Sarasota County Schools.
Recommendation
That the School Board approve the Interlocal Agreement between Sarasota School Board and Sarasota County Board of County Commissioners for the joint use, maintenance, and management of park and recreational resources on school facilities and fields.
