Hearing on Canton High School Track, Field and Lot Improvement Project Set for Feb. 20

On Feb. 20, the Canton Zoning Commission will hold a public hearing on the site plan for the Canton High School track, field and parking lot improvement project. 

The commission set the date at its most recent meeting.

The project was approved by voters in November and calls for a 6-lane track with 8-lane sprinting section, a multi-use synthetic field and a revamped and safer parking lot and school entrance.

Officials are hoping much of the work can be completed this summer but land-use approvals are needed. Approval by the the Canton Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency is also still pending. 

Also during the Feb. 20 meeting, the zoning commission plans to continue discussion of a proposed park plan for youth fields and a portion of the Farmington River Trail at town-owned property on 55 Lawton Road. 

More details will be posted as the meeting nears.
