Darling Stadium turf installed; council hears progress on athletic upgrades
Summary
Council heard that Darling Stadium's turf is complete, track work and a second long-jump pit are nearing completion to support the spring track season, and staff thanked council for funding improvements aimed at making venues competitive for regional meets.
During the Parks and Recreation update, Dave McCauley summarized work at Darling Stadium: turf installation is complete and the track and field improvements, including a second jump pit requested by council to host larger meets, are nearing completion. "The stadium... the turf is done," McCauley said, and he estimated the secondary work would be finished within weeks to align with the outdoor track season.
Council members asked about the timeline and whether the upgrades would meet competition standards; staff said the second pit work is in progress and that they had repaved parking lots and updated the ticket booth glass. McCauley added that staff are planning an assessment of lighting to determine future project needs and thanked council for funding the upgrades.
