Conclusions 1

• CL1
  C-01 - The Grand Jury concluded that most cities and Districts in the County allow non- affiliated sports leagues to use their facilities to practice or play. However, they do not require proof of compliance with California law regarding protection against concussion-related injuries from these leagues. They also do not require proof that procedures for preventing and reporting child physical or sexual abuse are in place. Response to C-01: AGREE. The City does not require proof of compliance from youth sports leagues regarding concussion related injuries or that leagues have adopted procedures for preventing and reporting child physical or sexual abuse. The City ensures our programs meet all the legal requirements for preventing and reporting child physical or sexual abuse. C-01 - The Grand Jury concluded that cities and Districts do not require proof of adequate parental waivers and insurance coverage from non-affiliated sports leagues to protect against legal action that could jeopardize public monetary resources. Response to C-02: AGREE. The City agrees with this conclusion. The City does not require proof of waivers for all individuals participating in youth sports leagues. The City does require proof of insurance when a site is rented, or a permit given and an individual insured endorsement naming the City of Fillmore is required. C-03 - The Grand Jury concluded that cities and Districts are underinsured with respect to the type of coverage and coverage amounts to sufficiently protect them from litigation arising from the conduct of youth sports on city or district property. Response to C-03: DISAGREE. The City disagrees with this conclusion. The City of Fillmore annually reviews insurance coverages and adjusts as needed. The City's insurance program currently provides adequate coverage and protection from liabilities associated with youth sports leagues using City facilities.
