3. CITIZEN ISSUES / SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS:
Representatives from Hudson Youth Soccer, Mr. Fran Beauregard, Ms. Kallio and Mr. Waddell were present to voice their concern over the closing of HHS front field. They were informed that playing in the rain was unacceptable and that according to HYSoccer’s website schedules and those submitted to Recreation their season was completed. Mr. Busch did state that the Director of Recreation, Assistant Director of Recreation, Police and DPW Personnel were authorized to close fields and cancel use when they determine that use will be detrimental to field conditions. All use of fields including rain make ups must be submitted to Recreation.
The HYS representatives are concerned about the condition of the Sauta cornfield including the size, the condition of the actual field, parking for the field, etc. Mr. Beauregard inquired as to whether the deed stipulated anything or Planning Board minutes or drawings regarding the developer’s responsibility since he is concerned about an open grated area, the necessity to shut down if the septic system failed, the amount of parking and lack of loam on the property. The Director informed them that a member of DPW and Recreation would be meeting with the developer soon to discuss when the area would be given to the Town under the lease/easement agreement, but that the developer was not responsible for any development of the field for recreation use.
Mr. Beauregard also stated that the loam for the front of HHS was filled with rocks and we should check that out.
