Coach Rigg asked the commission for flexibility in per-player pricing to help the startup attract participants. Peter and other commissioners noted the commission has granted targeted discounts in the past for small single-night programs, but several commissioners opposed a blanket reduction for a league-style program that could create inconsistent expectations.
“I make a motion that we do not make a reduction in the per player fee for Next Level Sports flag football for this upcoming 2025 season,” Peter said. The motion was seconded and passed on a 4–0 roll call vote.
Commissioners said they remain open to establishing a systematic, transparent policy for fee concessions and that any future relief should be standardized and applied consistently to all new leagues. Several commissioners emphasized the town’s need to preserve rental revenue amid rising operating costs.
