RECOMMENDATION
Accept the status report on the Police Activities League (PAL) partnership, programs and services.
BACKGROUND
The Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Services Department will provide the Neighborhood Services and Education Committee with an update and presentation on the status of the partnership, programs and services at the J.R. Blackmore PAL Stadium Complex.
The PAL Stadium Complex continues to be an essential resource that aims to provide youth and their families with opportunities to engage in fun and safe activities that strengthen bonds between the police and residents of San José. The City of San José’s partnership with the PAL nonprofit continues to develop and PAL is working to rebuild its youth programming after COVID-19 pandemic related program reductions. The update will include the current status of the contract, status of the PAL Board and organization, and progress made in the maintenance and programming aspects of the partnership.
The City will continue to work collaboratively with the PAL Board and the San José Police Department to develop, improve and enhance the programming and services offered at the PAL Stadium Complex.
