SAU 21 Article 4: Repair Athletic Fields – $55,000

To see if the School District will vote to raise and appropriate the sum of $55,000 to apply top dressing to Alumni Field ($25,000) and to widen the football practice field ($30,000)? This article will allow the school to continue the school board’s field repair proposal estimated to cost $100,000 between now and 2018 as part of the approved Winnacunnet facility plan. This will be a non-lapsing appropriation per RSA 32:7 VI and will not lapse until the project is complete or June 30, 2018, whichever is earlier. (Majority vote required.)

What it means: Repairs to the fields are requested as part of a phased approach to keep the facilities in good condition.

 What people are saying: This phased approach is kinder to the taxpayers and less disruptive to the activities at the school.
