Mr. Hendrix reported that the result of the negotiation with P.V.C.C. regarding use of their softball fields for City league games is that P.V.C.C. agrees and the City would need to spend $65,000 for provide lighting and fencing for the field. Mayor Buck asked Mr. Hendrix to request that the County of Albemarle share this cost on a 50/5Q basis, since County residents will benefit from the use of the field as well as City residents. Mr. Conover asserted he felt it was a useful project for the City to undertake regardless of the County's participation in the cost. Mayor Buck agreed but suggested that the alternative to the County's sharing in the cost would be to restrict the use of the field to City residents. Mr. Hendrix agreed to explore the question with the County. Mr. Conover announced that although there was still uncertainty about whether he has a conflict of interest in the Vinegar Hill project, he will refrain from participating in the decision on it as he wishes to avoid any actual or perceived conflict.
