A plan to overhaul the athletic fields at the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School with artificial turf is the subject of growing controversy.

About 100 people attended a public forum Wednesday to discuss a proposal to create a synthetic turf field as part of the high school's athletic facilities.

I write regarding the current proposal by MV@Play to upgrade the athletic facilities on the high school campus.

An ambitious upgrade for playing fields at the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School was pitched to the high school committee this week.
