Implore LGUSD to do these 2 things:
- Keep artificial turf OFF elementary school campuses ENTIRELY.
- Rescind the conclusion from the November 2021 district staff report that artificial turf is safe for use on school campuses. This conclusion can not be drawn from the evidence available. There remain an abundance of serious causes for concern. Even California's Department of Toxic Substances Control is questioning the safety of artificial turf including versions NOT made with recycled tires researching artificial turf as part of its 2021-2023 Priority Product Work Plan. LGUSD has NOT sufficiently addressed artificial turf safety concerns by proposing to use a version made without recycled tires.
