[Lincolnparkdc] Fwd: Lincoln Park trash / a Lincoln Park missioned community group

[Mia Grosjean]

I whole heartedly agree.  The possibilities of more activities in the park makes me terribly nervous.  I live on the park and already see right outside my window how incredibly it is being used now... especially since covid.   But I can also remember when a nonprofit group had music so loud several years ago that I had to leave the house until it was over.  Organizing funds for the maintenance and beautification of the park is high on my list but not more expanded organized use.  
Thank you, Mia

> It is truly great that the neighborhood has Lincoln Park in its backyard. It is a national park that seems well loved. What is not great is how some people either pathetically don't know for better, or worse, don't care about leaving their trash.  For example, attached are the pictures of the trash left by a group who were picnicking Friday night. Loose garbage was not put in bags, all left to blow about and scatter in the rain and wind.

> There was a posting of a person wanting to start a non-profit for Lincoln Park, the mission statement read broad but encouraged more activities and events at the park. These may be good but these may be not good.  
> Public activities in the park impact neighborhood residents. In the positive, it could be better grounds and bench maintenance, open air art, health, environmental programs for kids and adults. In the negative, it could be more trash left by inconsiderate people (as exampled) or increased noise from Summer concerts with competition for parking to accommodate people. And, still raw for many people is the park statue becoming a flashpoint this Summer requiring chainlink and jersey barriers with 24 hour patrols.   If the idea moves forward, please keep this in consideration.
