Body
Issue/Request:
An Ordinance approving an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Lee's Summit, Missouri, through the Parks and Recreation Board, and the Lee's Summit R-7 School District outlining the Mutual Sheltering and Reunification Agreement for the Great Beginnings Early Childhood Center and Legacy Park Community Center for the 2021-2022 school year, and authorizing the Mayor to execute the same.
Key Issues:
• Great Beginnings Early Childhood Center facility is located immediately across the parking lot from Legacy Park Community Center
• Each year, LSPR and the R-7 School District enter into a Memorandum of Understanding that outlines the entities’ agreements with respect to use of one another’s facilities as sheltering sites in the event of a crisis or emergency requiring evacuation.
• Agreement includes indemnification provisions by the R-7 School District in favor of LSPR and the City of Lee’s Summit.
• Agreement is re-evaluated every year and adjustments are made as appropriate.
Proposed Committee Motion:
I move to recommend to City Council for approval of an Ordinance approving an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Lee's Summit, Missouri, through the Parks and Recreation Board, and the Lee's Summit R-7 School District outlining the Mutual Sheltering and Reunification Agreement for the Great Beginnings Early Childhood Center and Legacy Park Community Center for the 2021-2022 school year, and authorizing the Mayor to execute the same.
Background:
Because the R-7 School District is a political subdivision, the Agreement between LSPR and R-7 must be approved by the governing body of City and executed by the Mayor, pursuant to relevant state law and City Charter provisions.
