Scalze suggested that the Council review the minutes of the Park <br />Commission meeting for that discussion. <br />22b Scalze reported that the issue comes down to whether or not the City <br />should get involved in tournament softball. The Recreation Association <br />is recommending 300 foot softball fields and the Park Commission is <br />split on 280 foot fields versus 300 foot fields. <br />Council discussed the matter and it was the concensus of the Council <br />that it did not want to be involved in tournament softball. <br />Fahey stated that he was in favor of 280 foot fields if dual use <br />could be made of these fields with soccer fields. If an additional <br />20 feet was needed to provide dual use, than 300 foot fields were <br />acceptable to him. Otherwise, Fahey stated that he was in favor of <br />280 foot fields. <br />Mr. Fahey introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br />Page -25- <br />Page 232 <br />
