Lincoln Park Committee Meeting Minutes
January 22, 2025
Attending: Bob Pressman, Wei Wie Li, Paul Earsy, Brian Kelley, Joanne Shorter
Meeting commenced at 5:15pm at Community Center
Barnard and Parterre continue to do good work. Brian communicated to Barnard and
Parterre the new procurement process, which would require them agreeing to terms
and keeping annual billing under $10,000. This would likely require paring back the
maintenance work based on the last two years of invoices. Draft contracts have been
provided to Barnard and Parterre and they have indicated they are amenable to this
arrangement.
Replacement of Granite Forest trees has been less of a priority due to the focus being
on the repair/replacement of boardwalk surfaces. Proposal from Foti indicated a
drainage issue.
Activitas Inc. provided an updated proposal for the Boardwalk repair/replacement of
the surface, based on Brian's input they were able to reduce the fee from $50,000 to
$20,000 by reducing the scope of the work. Discussion of Parker Meadow boardwalk
and getting information for Peter Coleman that may be able to be applied to the
Lincoln Park boardwalk replacement.
Motion to approve moving forward with Activitas Inc. revised proposal dated 05
January 2025 titled: "Professional Design Services for the Upgrades to the Lincoln
Park Boardwalks" to include Part 1: Basic Services and Part 2: Design Services not to
exceed $20,000. Unanimous 4-0 vote in favor (Wei Wie Li is a non-voting member)
Reviewed and discussed current Fitness station locations and scope would not include
active area central stations and would focus on replacing existing stations closer to

stations already and may be able to help remove the others. Discussion of the
Community Center fitness station area and getting information for Peter Coleman that
may be able to be applied to the Lincoln Park fitness station replacement.
