Are Turf Fields Necessary in Lynbrook? [POLL]
This week's board of education meeting left residents with the possibility of three turf fields in Lynbrook.
The Lynbrook Board of Education announced two potential capital project plans at Wednesday's meeting – the final result of which would be in Lynbrook.
The original capital project plan, revealed at the Feb. 29 , called for a turf field at North Middle School, as well as a track replacement and turf field at South Middle School, along with several other additions to North.
These projects would remove $6,125,000 from the capital reserve fund. That fund currently contains $6.9 million, according to Assistant Superintendent of Business Dr. Melissa Burak.

A third turf field at Marion Street Elementary – which would be a separate second project to the one at both middle schools – was also considered at one point to follow the completion of the two middle school improvements.
Residents have already begun sounding off as to whether to the fields would be a good use of the capital reserve fund, but what do you think?
