Site work and outdoor lighting for a playground / park / athletic field in Frederick, Maryland. Conceptual plans call for site work for a playground / park / athletic field.

The last major renovations at McCurdy Field occurred in 1988. Since that time, regular maintenance has occurred, but certain major infrastructure items need repair/replacement. The field lighting needs to be replaced. The new lighting would provide illumination directly to the playing area, thus mitigating light pollution to the surrounding area. Bleacher seating for baseball and football has aged and needs replacement for both aesthetic and safety reasons. The playing surface at the stadium has been maintained and cared for by city staff for many years. An upgraded irrigation system would improve the condition of the playing surface, as well as enable staff to dedicate time in other areas within the department. This project is included in the city’s fy 2024-2029 Capital Improvement Program. As of July 23, 2024, further details regarding construction and completion timelines have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
