Those included, but were not limited to a single restroom facility to serve 12-16 soccer fields, no provisions for football, baseball or other sports activities, minimal shade for areas used by people, no seating or designated viewing facility for playing fields. The TAB expressed strong general support for the proposed facility and passed the zoning request to make that support tangible.
