Looks like Albany has some turf worries, too

In a column I wrote that appeared Tuesday, Sept. 11, I spoke about two different Rochester synthetic turf fields that tested positive for being toxic.

A letter writer responded by saying I was ignoring the truth in my opposition to a turf field being installed at Auburn school district fields.

“Let's give the school board a little credit, they are trying to do what's best for the students and the community,” the letter stated. “Updating our facilities benefits the entire community. All it takes is a community that cares and a few extra dollars a month. We can't say no forever.”
