North Hudson Park Board September 15, 2026 LIVE

The North Hudson Park Board meeting was held September 15, 2026. The board reviewed park accessibility and maintenance, then discussed 2027 budget priorities and longer-term capital needs. Public Works reported that erosion controls at Brown’s Beach had held up after rainfall and that a repair to a bent railing was being arranged; the Brown’s Beach parking-lot project had a green light, but bidding and seasonal timing could delay construction. The board also discussed a roughly $166,000 Fair Landing pavilion-and-bathroom replacement concept (excluding other site improvements), an estimated $4,000 Eaglewood sandbox and digger replacement, and tree planting at about $850 per established tree. Cedar Corp may provide concept planning and grant-writing support for prioritized projects; no contract awards or purchases were approved at this meeting.

The board unanimously approved a recommendation to the Village Board for 2027 budget consideration that included beginning Fair Landing improvements with a concept plan, expanding the Pepperfest Park ice rink, and installing fencing at the Glenn Oaks pickleball courts with a seasonal portable toilet. Members also discussed pursuing grants and community donations, a possible Friends of the Park group, and accessibility improvements at Fair Landing. The board continued work on its long-term outdoor recreation plan and noted that a tree and disease policy revision is expected to return for review; no final policy or Friends group action was taken.
