Where it stands as of Wed, May 13
Repairs to the turf at Kallander Field remain pending after the Recreation Commission received an estimate of $8,000 to $9,000 from the original installer, North Turf, with the Department of Public Works assisting with materials. The quote is significantly lower than earlier vendor estimates approaching $40,000 and falls within the commission's remaining capital balance of $13,000 to $14,000. A full presentation and decision were planned for June 2026, but the commission took no formal action and no further steps have been scheduled.
