KJM Turf

in progress

The KJM Turf project is a long-running effort (at least 10 years in development) to renovate the KJM athletic fields, with options for either synthetic or natural turf. As of October 2024, staff was working with consultant Timmons to develop preliminary plans and a detailed budget for both options.

The project is estimated at approximately $10 million. As of May 19, 2025, $6 million in funding has been identified — $4 million in existing funds and $2 million in ARPA funding — leaving a remaining gap of $6–8 million. The project was discussed during a joint School Board and Parks & Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB) meeting on May 19, 2025, where PRAB presented the Timmons plan and requested that the School Board join as a formal partner, given that the fields would be shared space.

No formal action or vote was taken at either the School Board Work Session or the joint PRAB/School Board meeting.
