Highlighting the specific conflict of interest between project goals and community use
The Frank Feeley Field Phase 2 improvements are on hold until April 8. The core conflict remains: formal athletic upgrades vs. the loss of informal community recreation space used by local children. #Sudbury #ParksAndRec https://meetingwatch.org/ma/sudbury/planning-board/2026-03-25/ #MeetingWatch #SudburyMA

First, the Frank Feeley Field project. Residents (including Tim Rasmyson and Gail Kessler Walsh) argued strongly to preserve the neighborhood sledding hill. The Board acknowledged the concern but deferred the resolution to Parks & Rec. #Sudbury

The Board suggested technical fixes like fence modifications, but the fundamental question remains: will formal athletic improvements come at the expense of decades of informal community use?

Second, the Wireless Services Overlay District. Residents raised concerns about 5G radiation and tower proximity to schools. The Board moved to close the hearing, relying on 'co-location' rules rather than addressing specific setback requests. #LocalGov https://meetingwatch.org/ma/sudbury/planning-board/2026-03-25/

Longer-form draft.
At the March 25 Planning Board meeting, two significant issues surfaced that directly impact the character and safety of our neighborhoods: the Frank Feeley Field improvements and new wireless zoning amendments. Regarding the Frank Feeley Field Phase Two project, several residents—including Tim Rasmyson, Gail Kessler Walsh, Tim Walsh, and Bettina Westerberg—spoke up to demand the preservation of the long-standing sledding hill. While the project promises upgraded athletic facilities, it threatens to eliminate a space where local children have played for decades. The Board ultimately moved to continue the hearing until April 8, leaving the fate of this community recreational space in limbo. Additionally, the Board moved to close the public hearing on the Wireless Services Overlay District zoning amendment. While the Board argued that 'co-location' requirements would prevent the clustering of towers, they did not address specific requests from residents to implement mandatory setbacks near schools and athletic fields to mitigate concerns regarding wireless technology proximity. As these decisions move forward, residents should continue to ask: how are we balancing modern infrastructure and athletic upgrades with the existing, informal ways our community uses its open spaces? https://meetingwatch.org/ma/sudbury/planning-board/2026-03-25/ #MeetingWatch #SudburyMA
