Good morning,
The field at Ben Franklin Middle School is property maintained by the Board of Education, not the Village. Accordingly, any responsive records regarding improvements or plans would be in their custody, and your request should be directed to them.
At this time, we will consider this request closed and our obligation satisfied.
Best regards,
Jennifer Natoli
Deputy Village Clerk
