As there is no such container at Fairview Park, trash and debris will be <br />bagged by HYAA and disposed of by HYAA at receptacles which HYAA has access to. <br />HYAA agrees that it shall drag the utilized fields after each use (including the end of play <br />for the day) with HYAA equipment except as provided in Section One (F) where the onset of <br />dusk in Fall Season precludes this possibility. If either County or HYAA suffer occasional field <br />maintenance equipment breakdowns, each party shall reasonably attempt make its equipment <br />available to the other to assist in field preparation. <br /> The County agrees to maintain the grounds including restrooms, fields, fencing, bases, <br />pitching mounds and rubbers and dugouts ensuring a safe environment. <br /> The County agrees to have all required fields freshly dragged, lined and painted 30 <br />minutes prior to each game start time. HYAA will be responsible for lining and dragging of <br />fields between games. HYAA will purchase and apply field preparation materials (such as “Plus- <br />5,” “Turface” or other like materials). In case of rain or other circumstances that impedes the <br />County’s ability to line the field,HYAA will take responsibility for lining the field on that day. <br />Example: If County staff lines the field at 4:30 PMand rain washes away the lines we realize <br />staff has gone home for the day. Therefore if the field dries out before a 6:00 PM game time, and <br />play is determined to be allowable, HYAA will then be responsible for the second lining. <br />Final decisions on the availability of fields described herein, during or subsequent to rain events <br />or adverse weather, will be made by the County Department of Environment, Agriculture, Parks <br />and Recreation – in consultation with HYAA. Such decisions, to minimize field damage and <br />maintain safe conditions, shall be made in consultation with a designated HYAA representative <br />via a “walk-through” of the fields to be used prior to scheduled play. Efforts will be made to <br />make such cancellation decisions in a timely manner which meets the interests of both parties. <br />In February of each year, HYAA and County representatives shall meet for an annual “work <br />day” at Cedar Grove Park to discuss the upcoming season, plan for service provision and go over <br />conditions of use as described herein or in other County policies or ordinances. <br />At the conclusion of each season, any damage beyond normal “wear and tear” standards to park <br />ball fields or facilities outlined in this Agreement used by HYAA, and which are directly <br /> <br />
