SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation administers the Mountain Bike grant fund which comes from a portion of the revenue from mountain bike license plate sales. Funds are for
the development, maintenance, and expansion of mountain bike trails. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee and City staff wish to develop a mountain bike skills park (pump track)
adjacent to the McCall Skate park on school district property. The purpose of the project would be to provide a local public bike park for skill development and recreational use. Grant
funds are needed to hire a contractor for tree removal and track development, and signage. City staff force account labor will be used for track design and site development.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submission of a FY 2017 Mountain Bike Fund grant application for a mountain bike park.
