FINANCIAL STATEMENT
$19,100 has been included in the FY 1991-92
budget. How~ver, during the mid-year
financial reVlew, the Council agreed to
defer/delete this expense from the FY 1991-92
budget due to reduced General Fund revenues.
The city did, however, receive approximately
~ $21~ºOO ~ore in Park Dedication Fees from the
-trighton Meadows Development than was
estimated in the FY 1991-92 Budget. Should
the council wish to proceed with the 90'
Baseball Diamond, it is recommended that the
project be financed from the Park Dedication
Fund as opposed to the General Fund.
DESCRIPTION Included in the Fiscal Year 91-92 Budget were
funds for the construction of a 90 foot practice baseball diamond at
Murray School. The project was to be constructed utilizing volunteer
labor from Dublin Little League and the City was to provide the
materials and project supervision. The estimated cost of the project,
$19,100.00, was to be funded by the city's General Fund.
At the January 13, 1992 meeting of the Dublin City Council, the
council received a report which identified a potential deficit in the
General Fund of $431,380. consequently the council considered a list
of potential items totalling' $480,198 which could be removed (or
deferred to a subsequent year) from the 1991-92 Budget in order to
eliminate the potential deficit; the 90 foot baseball diamond was
included on the list.
Dublin Little League has subsequently submitted construction plans and
a cost estimate for the 90 foot baseball diamond and has requested
that the city reconsider the funding for this project. Staff has
reviewed the information submitted and determined that the
construction plans are adequate, however the cost estimate for the
materials exceeds the original budget by approximately $3,300-$5,060.
A breakdown of the cost estimate is shown on the following page.

Should the City Council wish to proceed with the project, Staff would
recommend that the optional equipment be funded by Dublin Little
League as this is equipment that is typically provided by Little
League at the other fields that they utilize.
It is recommended that the city Council consider the request from
Dublin Littl~ League regarding funding for the construction of the 90
foot baseball diamond at Murray School and advise Staff accordingly.
