Long Beach Park Board September 22, 2026

The Long Beach Park Board meeting on September 22, 2026, focused on park projects and upkeep. The board discussed two possible tennis/pickleball court layouts and said it is working with RVI to obtain construction quotes. Members agreed to post both options and gather additional public feedback, then hold a special meeting around October 11 to review comments and decide how to proceed. A swing for Melrose Park remains under consideration pending confirmation of installation responsibility and cost. The board also discussed obtaining a written quote for beach-stop signs and planning a walkthrough to assess maintenance and capital needs, including a possible boardwalk replacement at Stop 19.

Members considered contributing about $2,400–$2,500 toward Servicecape’s installation of holiday lights on a park tree. The board did not approve the expenditure; members deferred a vote until they verify applicable rules, clarify the Civic Association’s costs and fundraising arrangements, and check for scheduling conflicts. Camp fee increases were discussed based on survey feedback, but no amount or fee change was decided. No contract awards or procurement approvals were made.
