“Turf’s Up” in San Carlos (again…)

February 2, 2009

After years of environmental studies, countless dollars spent on consultants, and contentious City Council meetings, the all-weather turf saga in San Carlos has essentially traveled in a complete circle and landed right where it started:  Highlands Park.   This week, the City of San Carlos unveiled the preliminary details on the proposal to convert the lower field at Highlands Park to an all-weather turf surface.

If history is any indication, this will once again pit the vocal and well-organized opponents of all-weather turf against the organized sports teams in San Carlos.   The last go-around really polarized this town — now that the proposal seems to be gaining traction, I can only imagine what will be in store when the public hearings take place.

Here's the link with all the details:  Highlands Park — Lower Athletic Field Project
