The special Irvington Board of Education work session was originally set for Dec. 10 but was later pushed to 7:30 p.m. Jan. 7 because of inclement weather. The meeting is scheduled to take place in the campus presentation room.

Many Westchester school districts, including most recently in Tarrytown, have opted to use multi-million dollar all-weather, synthetic turf fields to replace grass fields, according to a previous report.

Irvington's Board of Education is working on proposals to renovate East Field on the middle and high school campus while Hastings residents voted down a proposed $8 million building and grounds bond proposal in October that included a new all-weather, artificial turf at Reynolds Field.
