New Orleans Seeks Public Input on $24.6M Lincoln Beach Redevelopment Plan at Third Community Meeting

The City of New Orleans is moving to directly engage its community members in shaping the future of Lincoln Beach. A series of public engagement meetings will culminate with the third session tomorrow, aimed at further refining the redevelopment master plan for the neglected area. 

Previous sessions have proven the City’s commitment to actively listen and take to heart the desires of the constituency. Now, in the third meeting, these residents will be asked to prioritize the programming elements for Phase One of redevelopment. The Office of Resilience and Sustainability and consultants are ready to present the thirty options identified from the prior discussions and solicit the community’s help to carefully select top priorities within the allocated $24.6M budget for the initial phase, according to the City of New Orleans.

The upcoming meeting tomorrow details are as follows: The first session is from 8:30 A.M. to 10:30 A.M. and the second from 6:30 P.M. to 8:00 P.M., hosted at Franklin Avenue Baptist Church. Addressing the need for accessibility, Spanish interpreters will be present to ensure that language barriers do not exclude community members’ input. The public can find more details on the City’s website.

Residents are reminded that Lincoln Beach remains a hazardous no-go zone until further notice. Home to alligators, venomous snakes, and poisonous flora, the beach is currently closed to the public, as stated by the City. Feedback from over 200 community members from the first two meetings has been instrumental in shaping the redevelopment’s course, highlighting the City’s stance on considering public input paramount.
