The Loyal Heights Difference
Read Why Artificial Turf Doesn't Make Sense at Loyal
Heights Playfield

Parks Department Bans Word "PLASTIC"
Staff insists that advisory panel only say "SYNTHETIC".
And we're not kidding.

turf is expensive, and costs a heck of a lot more to maintain
than proponents estimate. Replacement cost: how about a
cool mil per field.

We're being heard, and now is the time to contact Seattle City Council Budget Committee
Members (all council members are on the budget committee) and ask them to withhold funds
for the Loyal Heights Playfield "upgrade" pending a new (and
real) public input process. The
budget process is in full swing, so go to the
"EZ Activist" tab and get to work!
