Board receives Lincoln Park BOT update and approves revised Duke Energy easement for Carpenter Nature Preserve
Summary
The board heard an update on the Lincoln Park build‑operate‑transfer request‑for‑qualifications process and approved a revised utility easement exhibit from Duke Energy affecting Carpenter Nature Preserve.
The Zionsville Board of Parks and Recreation received a progress update Sept. 10 on the Lincoln Park build‑operate‑transfer (BOT) procurement and approved a revised Duke Energy utility easement for Carpenter Nature Preserve.
Staff reported the RFPQ for the Lincoln Park BOT had been advertised and that responses are due Sept. 24; a selection committee (Ryan, Doug and staff) will evaluate submissions and intends to present a negotiated agreement to the board in October. Staff said the selection process will evaluate price and scope and seek to return a negotiated maximum price and scope for board consideration.
Separately, the board approved a revised exhibit to a previously authorized utility easement from Duke Energy for Carpenter Nature Preserve. Staff explained that after crews reviewed the site they discovered the existing line was located on preserve property and the exhibit was adjusted to follow the recorded property line and existing alignment. The board moved and seconded acceptance of the updated exhibit and approved it by voice vote.
No other formal actions were taken on Lincoln Park at the meeting; staff said they will return with a negotiated agreement if the RFPQ process moves forward.
