RESOLVED, that the proper city officials are hereby authorized to enter into a three-year non-exclusive use agreement, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 1, with the Duluth Area Family Y.M.C.A. for use of a portion of Chester Park for its summer day camp program.
Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This resolution authorizes a three-year agreement with the Duluth Area Family Y.M.C.A (“YMCA”) for use of a portion of Chester Park for its summer day camp program known as Camp Kitchigami. Camp Kitchigami offers day camp programs for youth that are designed to develop self-esteem, life-long skills, acceptance of all people and an appreciation for the environment. YMCA has operated Camp Kitchigami at this location for a number of years under an expired agreement.
The YMCA can use the portion of Chester Park shown on Exhibit 2 between June 1 and August 31 during each year of this agreement on a non-exclusive basis. There is no usage fee associated with this Agreement because the park remains open and available to the general public during camp operations. YMCA is responsible to maintain the area shown on Exhibit 2 in a clean and orderly condition and shall pick up all paper, garbage, and other debris generated from its use of Chester Park.
