The 49ers Foundation and Bay Area Host Committee are planning to upgrade Townsend Field in Santa Clara, serving Buchser Middle School and local youth football teams. The project is still in the design phase, with cost assessments pending approval from the district board in the fall. At a board meeting, trustees were enthusiastic but sought clarification on potential ongoing costs due to budget constraints. This rehabilitation aligns with the 49ers Foundation's mission and coincides with Santa Clara's preparation to host the FIFA World Cup and Super Bowl 60.
"This initiative is about equity, access and building opportunity." - Zaileen Janmohamed, highlighting the commitment to community impact in relation to upcoming sports events.
"I share the concern with just wanting to know what costs are going to be involved... we have a challenging budget picture so we just want to get a better handle on that." - Trustee Michele Ryan expressing need for clarity on the project's financial aspects.
