• Install four light towers at Lincoln Fiel • Viz~ = °w°
• Modern, environmentally sensitive lighting
• On /off controlled remotely by the Town
• Privately funded and constructed
• Gifted to Town upon completion for benefit of community
• Partners
• Town of Lexington
• Sanborn Head — engineering consultants
• Musco — world -wide leader in athletic lighting
• Lexington youth sports grog
• Demand for fields is highest on weekday evenings
• A lighted field fills seasonal needs for youth soccer
• In the fall, allows practice after early darkness, until 8:3opm
• In the spring, when more sports are active, allows a second
practice slot in the evening, 7:oo- 8:3opm
• Lighting an existing field is more cost effective than
developing new land for athletic fields
• Artificial turf can handle intense use; grass cannot
• Temporary lights not a long -term solution
• Noisy, low quality light, expensive to operate
