Why Cornwall Turf Field Project

A Cornwall based multi-sport artificial turf field facility would not only benefit the local sports community, but it would help attract and host multiple sports events, bringing valuable economic growth to Cornwall and S.D & G.

Municipal Benefits

City Revenue Benefit

Cornwall has long been a winter sports tourism destination. A multi-sport artificial turf field would allow the city the benefit year round from the economic growth that we currently see during the winter months.

The City of Cornwall is a short distance from major locations like Ottawa or Montreal and New York state, making it a cost-effective location for premium sporting events.

Completion of a multi-sport artificial turf field offers the City of Cornwall a revenue generating platform that will not only enhance our city but drive economic development for local businesses and surrounding areas.

An artificial turf field when installed and maintained properly will last at least 20 years. CTFP is proposing that this turf field be a pay-per-use system just like many other city amenities. The cost of the turf field could be recouped conservatively in a matter of 7-10 years, which would give the city of Cornwall a revenue generating asset for 10+ years.
