Short-Terms
Short-term field-use permits are limited to recreational events that do not require participants to pay a fee or make a donation to participate. Short-term permits are issued for a minimum of one hour, with start times on the hour or the half-hour, in 60- or 30-minute increments. Quarter-hour permit start or end times are not available. Scoreboards, concessions or vendors are not allowed for short-term permits. Field-use permits that do not meet these qualifications are classified under the Sporting Event Fee Schedule.

Allocations
Sports fields are awarded to community leagues on a semi-annual basis in two time periods, March through July (spring allocation) and August through February (fall allocation). Allocation permits are issued after a request has been submitted, approval has been granted, all required documents are received, fees paid and insurance requirements are met. If interested please see our application. Allocation request forms must be submitted according to the submission dates listed below:
- Spring Allocation Period - Start accepting fourth Wednesday in November. Due second Monday in December, close of business
- Fall Allocation Period - Start accepting fourth Wednesday in April. Due second Monday in May, close of business
Once field allocations are completed for local youth and adult sport organizations, fields will be permitted to the public as available. Requests can be made through the Municipal Sports Unit. These requests will be processed in the order they are received and according to the prioritization listing (page 6 in policy handbook). The city reserves the right to determine which days, times and fields will be permitted based on other scheduled use, wear and maintenance issues.
