UNFINISHED BUSINESS
RESOLUTION 22-87: AUTHORIZE THE PURCHASE OF A BIKE PARK FROM
AMERICAN RAMP COMPANY
Wayne Pyle presented proposed Resolution 22-87 that would authorize the Purchase of a
Bike Park from American Ramp Company
Written documentation previously provided to the City Council included information as
follows:
With the success of the skate park, and pump track, including high demand from
bicyclists, it has been determined that a bike park type course should be located in
close proximity to the skate park and incorporate the pump track. This will increase
the usable area of the skate park; reducing congestion and increasing safety for all
participants, and will create more bike features (banks, berms, hills, jumps, etc.).
This will be a new element which will enhance the park not just for bicycles, but
for all wheeled users.
As Centennial Park continues to be developed, and with the success of the Skate
Park and Pump Track, it has been determined that a bike park should be installed.
This bike park will help alleviate some congestion at the skate park and will add
additional elements that would increase the draw to the skate park from users of all
skill levels.
The park will have asphalt trails and manufactured ramps, berms, whoops, tunnels
and bridge. It will be around the perimeter of the retention basin, and will be a one
of a kind facility east of the Mississippi River.
The new Bike Park features and installation will be obtained from American Ramp
Company using Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing contract number 112420-
ARC.
Councilmember Harmon asked how much the City will have to contribute to this project.
Nancy Day, Parks and Recreation Director, replied about 99% of the total cost is being
funded by the grant so the City’s portion will be very small.
Councilmember Nordfelt stated that he looks forward to this addition and will be great for
