“”:http://Trustees to vote on projects ?The MSU Board of Trustees is slated to vote this Friday on a contract regarding the artificial grass installment at Munn field for use by the Spartan Marching Band.
They could also vote on whether to purchase a piece of property in Lansing for university purposes.
John Madden, director of the Spartan Marching Band, told the Board of Trustees in October that rain and divots on Demonstration field proved problematic for the band.
Renovations to Munn field would cost about $1.3 million.
The Board of Trustees is set to consider authorizing construction to proceed on the West Circle Housing Complex, which plans to receive a new water main, communication lines and electric ducts.
The Kresge Courtyard renovations also are scheduled to be considered by the board.
The addition of a new outdoor venue could be home to Summer Circle Theatre and are aimed at helping the group avoid cancellations for rain and flooding, which have caused many problems in the past. This permanent venue will cost the College of Arts and Letters about $750,000.
In addition, the trustees will consider approving purchasing a 129,000EMC square foot facility at 3815 Technology Blvd., Lansing for research and economic development purposes.
