Shelton and Gladys A. Pospisil Shelton Foundation Advised Fund for $1300 to support the purchase of a bike repair and pump station to be located near the McCall Public Library (at the rear between the Library and Annex building) for use by pathway bikers and Library patrons. The bike repair station can be moved, if needed, to accommodate the future Library expansion. The selected bike repair station (Fixit Air Kit 3) is the same model as used by Gravity Sports and includes all the tools necessary to perform basic bike repairs and maintenance, from changing a flat to adjusting brakes and deraillers. The tools are securely attached to the stand with stainless steel cables and tamper-proof fasteners. Bikes can be hung from hanger arms to allow pedals and wheels to spin freely while making adjustments. An attached bike pump allows cyclists to inflate tires.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve submission of a Shelton Foundation grant application for a public bike repair station near the McCall Public Library and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
