Chad Johnson asks West Washington board to plan resurfacing of worn high-school track
Summary
A resident told the board the high-school track needs reconditioning, citing gravel on lanes, cracks and grass growth; he asked the board to develop a plan and offered photos to document the damage.
Chad Johnson, a patron who signed up for public comment, told the West Washington School Board the high-school track has deteriorated and urged the board to plan a reconditioning project.
Johnson said the track was last resurfaced about 18 years ago and that several problems now affect safety and use: gravel collects on lanes where hurdles are set up, cracks have opened with grass growing through, and some pavement appears to be failing. "It has been a long while," he said, adding that he brought photos to illustrate the condition and asked the district to "get on the same page" about a repair plan.
Board members acknowledged the concerns and signaled they would consider the request as the meeting moved on to other items. No specific timeline or funding plan for track repairs was presented during the public comment period.
