Background:
Lee’s Summit Parks and Recreation (hereinafter “LSPR”) and Jackson County Parks and Recreation (hereinafter “JCPR”) partner on a number of initiatives to promote and offer recreation activities for residents and patrons in the City and surrounding community.
For the past several years, LSPR and JCPR have entered into Facility Use Agreements which enable JCPR to utilize LSPR facilities for certain activities for physically and mentally challenged citizens of the community, including basketball, volleyball, and dance activities.
The initial term is one-year, and with up to four (4) one-year renewals. There is no financial impact to LSPR or the City for this partnership, and the Facility Use Agreement imposes requirements on JCPR with regard to insurance coverage for events which take place on LSPR property.
