Boise State intramural soccer, rugby, lacrosse and flag football teams may have a new place to play this fall.
A 2.8-acre synthetic turf field is planned for the corner of Lincoln Avenue and Belmont Street, kitty-corner from the Boise State Student Union.
The project, estimated to cost $850,000 to $1.2 million, needs final funding and construction approval from the State Board of Education, said Aaron Whitman with Boise State?s architectural and engineering services department.
Once approved, construction could begin this spring and be completed in the fall.
The Boise Planning and Zoning Commission holds a public hearing on the project March 5. The hearing begins at 6 p.m. in the State Capitol Building via the 8th Street entrance.
Future phases, contingent upon funding, call for a restroom and aluminum bleacher seating for 500 people.
An office/storage building and two unoccupied homes would be demolished to make way for the new field, which is adjacent to the newly completed $18 million Lincoln housing project.
Already under construction and expected to be completed in time for this fall?s high school football season is Dona Larson Park. The $6 million Boise State track-and-field and high school football facility is located on the former East Junior High site at Broadway and Warm Springs avenues.
