I get it,, I just can’t imagine the county/town/school district would benefit from an agreement that limits who can rent it. I understood it when it was SSC, they had a long history in that area. However the Charleston Soccer club isn’t based or headquartered in Summerville or Dorchester County. They are no different than any other club area. Why would tax money be used to benefit one organization over another?
I’m not advocating it being exclusive for anyone. The county has a new recreation department. They can take over the rental for all organizations. If my sons flag football wants to
Rent one of those fields, they should be able to. That is all I am saying.
The town/county/district is entering into the same type agreement to refurbish the Stafium that Summerville plays in. They are also looking at allowing organizations to rent it out and using it for public events.
It just makes sense when everyone is contributing tax money towards it that everyone has a chance to benefit from it.
