Parks and Recreation / Originator  FUNDING SOURCE: Parks Budget (Professional Services) Airport      Library    TIMELINE: December 28, 2023 Information Systems      Grant Coordinator    SUMMARY STATEMENT: The goal of this Donation Agreement is to provide The Central Idaho Mountain Bike Association (CIMBA) and the City of McCall with a formal process for CIMBA to make improvements and renovations on public property by construction, developing, and donating to the City a Bike Skills Park with formal jump lines. The property is located adjacent to the public pathway running between Dienhard Lane and Stibnite Street. This area is already being used by the public for biking, hiking, and running on informal singletrack trails that transect the site. This project, the process, and the partnership with CIMBA is similar to what the City of Boise recently did to construct and accept the donation of the J.A. and Kathryn Albertson Family Foundation Bike Park at 750 Mountain Cove Road, Boise. Project Overview: Over the past two years CIMBA and parks staff have explored the idea of a grass roots approach to funding and constructing a formal Mountain Bike Jump Park. This project was highlighted in the recently adopted PROS Plan and with CIMBA’s support, energy, and ability to fundraise for the project, it has the potential to become a unique and wonderful public amenity for the community. The Land Group, a Boise and McCall based design and engineering firm took the proposed project through design and engineering at a reduced cost with significant donations of time and materials to create Conceptual 3D renderings in addition to the design drawings. The design was then taken through the design review process in advance of the attached donation agreement with CIMBA to fully understand the scope of work and better estimate the cost of the project for CIMBA’s fundraising efforts. It is the Parks Departments goal to help offset design costs pending approval of the donation agreement. These funds have been built into our FY24 budget for professional services.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the donation agreement with the Central Idaho Mountain Bike Association for the potential flight path mountain bike jump lines project adjacent to the city’s public pathway on what is commonly known as the airport approach parcel and authorize the mayor to sign all necessary documents.  RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION  MEETING DATE ACTION  June 29, 2023 Council Approved a Letter of intent to support and partner with CIMBA on this project.
