I hope I'm wrong, but it looks like the Telluride School District Board made a final approval to move forward with the installation of artificial turf on the High School athletic fields by a 3-1 vote on Tuesday.
The board had taken pause to consider both cost and health implications re: artificial turf, but apparently some on the board felt the need to vote on this during the off-season ... perhaps to push this through when a lot of residents are away on vacation & the likelihood of immediate flak would be far less.
I'm not really sure if it'll affect camping @ the HS for this year's festival, but my strong suspicion is that it won't ... although maybe next year :-(
Personally, I find it a sad commentary re: how special interest can often push their agenda forward if they know which buttons to push and what levers to pull.
