FREEPORT — The Town Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to spend $2.3 million in surplus funds to develop athletic fields and recreational trails off Hunter Road.

Freeport Fields and Trails, a coalition of local residents and business owners, has proposed a multi-use complex that would include several playing fields, trails for running, biking and cross-country skiing, and a recreational lodge.

The coalition must raise an additional $1 million to complete the project, said Rich DeGrandpre, council vice chairman.
