From the looks of the photos (not condoning leaving trash on the ground), it appears the trash cans are inadequate to support the current use of the park. This is something we have spoken to NPS about and they don't have the budget for bigger trash cans AND/OR for more frequent pickups. This is a problem a friends group could help alleviate.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">Cheers,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small">Matt</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small"><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">- - - - - - - - - </span></div><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)"><br></span></div><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"><div><div><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">Hubert (Matt) Schoemaker</span></div><div><div><div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;"><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">Flipside Innovation <br>Co-Founder | COO</span></div></div><div><font style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)"><a dir="ltr" href="tel:610-283-3228" target="_blank">610-283-3228</a> </font></div></div></div></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Dec 14, 2020 at 10:49 AM Marche Maine <<a href="mailto:markrichardgrace@gmail.com" target="_blank">markrichardgrace@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">It is truly great that the neighborhood has Lincoln Park in its backyard. It is a national park that seems well loved. <u>What is not great</u> 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. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">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. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">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.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">And please people, pick up your trash. </div><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div>
