3/11/2026 Zionsville Board of Parks and Recreation

The Town of Zionsville Board of Parks and Recreation held its regular meeting on March 11, 2026, where several procurement and contract-related matters were discussed and approved. Key procurement actions included the acceptance of a transfer of real property parcels from the Friends of Boone County Trails to support trail development, and approval of amendments to the Lincoln Park refresh public-private partnership agreement with Envoy, Inc., reducing project costs to a guaranteed maximum price of $979,792.52. The board also approved a resolution to solicit naming rights for the Lincoln Park gazebo and accepted a donation for a bronze statue installation, with the donor covering all associated costs. Additionally, the board amended park rules to prohibit commercial transactions on park property without a special event permit, requiring vendors to share 10% of their revenue with the parks department and maintain $1 million in liability insurance. Amendments also clarified regulations on temporary structures such as tents and stages during special events. The board authorized the sale of two 2019 F250 trucks to fund leases for new 2026 Dodge Ram trucks, addressing operational needs. Finally, updates to the shelter reservation policy were approved to clarify usage limits and prohibit fundraising or commercial use unless expressly authorized.
