Citizens and Other Boards <br /> <br />2. Minutes <br />The minutes of the March 31, 2005 Recreation Committee meeting were approved 4 – 0. <br /> <br /> <br />3. Lincoln Park Update <br />?? <br />The Recreation Committee perused the architectural plans for the Lincoln Park Sub <br />Committee’s proposed Overlook. Karen Simmons reported that the LPSC planned to <br />present the proposal and drawings to the Conservation Committee in the near future. <br />Committee members suggested that the LPSC also attend a future Recreation Committee <br />meeting to discuss the project. <br />?? <br />In response to a question from Don Chisholm, Dave Pinsonneault reviewed plans to <br />finish the grading and site work at the Little League Field at Lincoln. The Parks <br />Department is going to lay stone dust in the area between the outfield fence and the fence <br />along Lincoln Street, and install a stone dust path. The Parks Department is also <br />investigating ways to prevent vehicles from parking illegally in front of the chain gate <br />emergency/maintenance entrance to the Little League area. <br />?? <br />Dave Pinsonneault reported that the binder layer was installed on the paths next to fields <br />1 and 2 at Lincoln. The contractor will pave the two paths within a week, weather <br />permitting. <br />?? <br />In March a Lacrosse Tournament was held at the park. There was quite a bit of damage <br />done to the grass around the parking area. This occurs particularly when there is a large <br />event at Lincoln, although inspection has shown that visitors to the park tend to make <br />their own parking spaces when the lot is full. Karen Simmons advised the committee that <br />on June 18 and 19, the Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association will hold a tournament <br />1625 MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE • LEXINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS 02420 <br /> <br /> <br />
