4.11 Parking at Whytegate Park Due to New Pickle Ball Courts and Resurfaced Basketball Courts

Mayor Brandt and staff received correspondence from residents noting concern for parking by Whytegate Park due to the new pickle ball courts installed at the park and upgraded basketball courts. Mayor Brandt stated her opinion was many of the players were not Lincolnshire residents. Residents requested no parking signs in the area, additional parking for the park, or implementing signing up for use of the courts.

Village Manager Burke stated both Police and Public Works are collecting data to get some understating for what is happening at the park. Staff is looking at signage and additional parking at the park. Scheduling of the courts is also being looked into by staff. There are no formal recommendations for the issue at this time, but staff will report back to the Board. Village Manager Burke recommended the Village Board consider installing additional pickle ball courts at North Park which can be discussed at the Budget Workshop meetings if this is the direction the Board would like staff to pursue for North Park.

A conversation regarding addressing the issues with signage and additional parking followed. The Board discussed limiting parking to one side of the street, taking down some of the nets to limit usage, or possible permit parking for residents. Mayor Brandt suggested a campaign to encourage walking or riding your bike to the park.

It was the consensus for the Board to look into having pickle ball courts added at North Park. Public Works Director Woodbury stated he would bring back some options for the combination of pickle ball and tennis courts at North Park.

It was the consensus of the Board to have staff look at additional parking and temporary signage for parking at Whytegate.

A discussion regarding reserving times for the courts followed. Trustee Hancock stated sign-up may not work if a court is reserved and no one shows up for their reservation.
