Special Call Village Council Meeting re Baseball Field License Agreement · 2026-07-27 · agenda_item

The Village of Islamorada is reviewing a license agreement for a baseball field. This agreement outlines the responsibilities for maintaining the field's improvements, which include grass cutting, artificial turf maintenance and repair, and other upkeep to keep the field in excellent condition. The agreement specifies that the Licensee will handle maintenance and utility costs from January 1 to May 31 each year. For the period of June 1 to December 31, the Licensor will cover utility costs, and the Licensee will provide maintenance, with the Licensor reimbursing the Licensee monthly for these expenses. This agreement is currently under review by the Special Call Village Council. The scope of work involves ongoing maintenance, potential turf replacement based on warranty or expert opinion, and regular upkeep of the baseball field. Local contractors specializing in landscaping, turf maintenance, general repair services, and potentially artificial turf installation or repair could find opportunities. Engaging early, before final agreements are settled, allows businesses to understand the ongoing needs and potential for future work related to the field's upkeep.
