Resident urges multi‑use design, outlines three criteria for success
Summary
Terry Stalkin told the Colman‑Egan board that a multi‑use facility could win community support if it benefits most students, secures majority backing and is built responsibly.
During public comment, Terry Stalkin said community outreach sessions had changed his view and emphasized that a new facility should serve multiple users rather than only athletics. He listed three priorities for any new build: it must "benefit the most students," have majority community support and be financially responsible.
Stalkin said the town’s reaction has shifted away from a single‑use stadium model toward broader community use, and he encouraged the board to continue the recent listening sessions. His remarks support the idea of further public engagement and design work to broaden the project’s appeal.
