Chilliwack councillors to vote on new synthetic turf replacement at Chilliwack Secondary
CHILLIWACK – Chilliwack councillors are set to vote on a motion today (Tuesday, June 2) that could see the synthetic turf surface at Chilliwack Secondary School replaced after it was first built 12 years ago.
According to a city staff report prepared by Richard Fortin, manager of parks planning, the synthetic turf surface at CSS has reached the end of its service life and is presently exhibiting “significant” signs of wear that impact player safety and field usability.
Fortin noted in his report to council that recent G-max testing has confirmed the need for replacement.
The artificial turf field was originally built in 2014 and is slated for replacement in 2027.
