Skaneateles (WSYR-TV) -- Skaneateles residents are voicing concerns about a proposed new sports complex.

Victory Sports Medicine wants to build a massive medical office and outdoor fields on Route 20 in the town of Skaneateles.

The idea was originally proposed more than a year ago, but since then, the project has grown to be 15 times bigger than originally thought.

The big concern is water use. The facility would use thousands of gallons of water every day, which could leave the town and village in short supply.

Neighbors are also concerned about bright lights and traffic that would come along with the facility.

The Board is accepting written comments about the plan until Monday. On Tuesday, they can either vote to approve or reject the project, or they can table the proposal for 45 days in order to get more feedback.
