But he clarified that the field is safe for use currently. “If I thought that field was unsafe right now, we would not have kids playing on it,” he said. “It’s still providing a cushioning surface.” He said the grass fiber has been worn down, which affects appearance. But the ground-up tire material, which affects safety, is intact and sufficient. Dill said work will begin after school is out this June and will be completed in time for the start of school in August. Clarification:
