To the Honorable Board of Aldermen:

I hereby request, subject to the approval of your Honorable Board, an appropriation in the amount of $325,000 for design, engineering and preparation of bid documents for Lincoln Park and the City Treasurer, with the approval of the Mayor to borrow $325,000 to meet said appropriation.

The purpose of this investment is to:
1) Provide for a public process to guide the design of the park and field improvements;
2) Provide the designs associated with these improvements and an engineer’s estimate as to the cost of these improvements;
3) Provide appropriate bid documents for the construction of the designed improvements.

Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
