Some Bergen County towns show some common sense....


 Yet, NO ONE in Lodi brings up these questions with regard to ALL of our turf fields.....

"The plans proposed by Borough Engineer Andrew Hipolit include options for turning all or part of the field into artificial turf. He recommended an option that used turf for the soccer field — since it saw the most wear and tear — while keeping the Little League field grass.

Citing studies and articles linking crumb rubber infill for turf with cancer and other health issues, many in attendance spoke out against its use, saying even if a definitive link hasn't been proved, it's not worth the risk.

The mayor and council all agreed to take it off the table as an option, instead looking into cork as an infill."

And, of course this name looked familiar.
