Accept Shaw Diversified Services, Inc.’s (“Shaw”) donation of Shaw Field to the City of Yuma. (City Administration) (Jay Simonton).

STRATEGIC OUTCOME:

Acceptance of Shaw Field furthers the City’s Active and Appealing strategic outcome by providing a permanent park facility for Yuma’s residents and visitors.

 

REPORT:

Since June 7, 2005, the City has leased Shaw Field from Shaw, located at the northeast corner of 1st Street and Avenue B, for a token amount consisting of payment of the property taxes and City maintenance of the field for public recreational use.  The lease has essentially amounted to a gift from Shaw to the Yuma Community, and now Shaw has expressed a desire to make a permanent gift of Shaw Field to the City of Yuma.

 

After announcing the closure of its Yuma operations, Shaw has generously offered to donate Shaw Field to the City at no cost. To accept the property, City Council must adopt an ordinance which authorizes City acceptance, and the City Administrator to execute a donation agreement on behalf of the City of Yuma.
