Frontier fields face irrigation and safety problems; staff seeks funding options
Summary
Staff reported work to replace infield surfaces and irrigation at Frontier fields and raised multiple safety concerns — overflowing gutters, drainage failures and unstable light poles — that staff said need funding to repair.
A staff speaker reported that Frontier fields are undergoing infield work: contractors are removing the skin area to install synthetic infields intended to increase practice and game time, and irrigation replacement is nearly complete across the fields. The presenter said this work should allow more usage time once finished.
The speaker also outlined several safety and maintenance problems at Frontier, including drainage gutters that overflow, failing light poles and other issues that staff described as safety problems needing funding. "We've got all the foam injection to try to keep everything up. We're pretty much maxed out on that kind of stuff," the presenter said, and asked the board to consider options for funding repairs. No specific funding sources or budget amounts were announced during the meeting.
