Raton Board explores $1 million EMNRD grant to resurface Tiger Stadium track
Summary
President Phillips said the district is pursuing a possible $1 million EMNRD grant for track resurfacing and irrigation at Tiger Stadium; the grant would require a 50/50 match and the application window opens in September.
President Jason Phillips told the board he, Superintendent Kristie Medina and Myra Baird have discussed pursuing a potential $1 million EMNRD grant to resurface Tiger Stadium’s track and install an irrigation system. He said the grant would require a 50/50 local match and that the application window opens in September.
No formal action or allocation of local match funds was taken at the April 16 meeting. Board members and staff noted the opportunity but raised concerns about timelines and local matching capacity; Mr. Kamp said he remains worried about the new building roof in related conversations. The matter will return for further planning if the district decides to prepare an application this summer.
