Funding for turf cover at Stadium approved

The City of Moncton is looking at improvements to Croix Bleue Medavie Stadium.

Council members approved funding this week for the purchase of a turf floor cover.

The administration will now begin a procurement process for the purchase.

This will enhance the potential of hosting more major concerts while helping to protect the FIFA 2-Star turf field from damage.

The motion stated this is a significant investment, but will have great economic benefits for the city.

It also says hosting opportunities for major concerts have been limited due to the risk of damage to the turf field.

Further details of the procurement process and the costs involved in a purchase will be revealed when they come before the city council at a later date.
