While the gift covers upfront costs, long-term expenses—including replacing the turf in 8-10 years and hauling away old materials—remain unaccounted for. Board members offered little explanation for their votes, sparking public outcry over lack of transparency. Even though the proposal was deemed “credible,” critics argue unanswered questions linger, underscoring the need for openness when decisions impact school budgets and communities.
