Live Stream Council Meeting Lincoln Park 7 PM 08-10-2026

The City of Lincoln Park held a council meeting on August 10, 2026, which included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key items included the adoption of new water and sewer rates based on a study by Plante Moran, with the council ultimately approving option three, which proposed a 27% increase for low volume users and 15% for high volume users, followed by steady increases in subsequent years to ensure system sustainability and fund infrastructure repairs. The council also awarded a $110,000 contract to Source 1 Construction for the Department of Public Services flat roof replacement project, funded through the capital improvement program. Additionally, a contract for $57,980 was awarded to CNS Construction Management for the conversion of an inline skating concrete slab into four pickleball courts at Council Point Park, funded by Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The meeting included public comments on water loss issues and discussions about resident assistance programs for water bills. Other agenda items included appointments to the Downtown Development Authority and updates on city staffing and upcoming community events.
