Youth and High School Soccer Field

Name of Proposed Project: Athletic Field - Rye Nursery Property

Project Description: The removal of all existing structures will provide sufficient space to develop an athletic field to accommodate those sports for ages played on a rectangular field (e.g. soccer, field hockey, lacrosse).
