The current pricing proposal from FieldTurf for the Westerly High School Stadium Field is $1,385,000. The School Committee committed $500,000 for turf fields and the Town Council matched this commitment for a total commitment of $1,000,000.
The excess unassigned fund balance is $1,869,317, with an anticipated surplus of $633,720.
Kirchhoff recommended the committee use up to $374,000 of committed maintenance funds for the stadium field, plus $11,000 of the $50,000 that was set aside for field design services. The design contract total was $39,000, she said.
