Today Kahl Muscott, District Administrator for the Auburn Area Recreation and Park District (ARD), sent this email regarding the Auburn BIke Pump Park:
"ARD will continue the Public Hearing for the proposed Auburn Bike Park on Monday, October 23rd. The meeting will take place at 6pm at the Canyon View Community Center (471 Maidu Dr., Auburn, 95603). The agenda, when created, will be posted on the ARD website www.auburnrec.com."
The location selected for the bike park has become a controversial issue. The vote to go forward or not with the bike park in the Maidu location was slated to be voted on during the regular Board meeting on October 26, so this is a special added meeting.

NO VOTE ON AUBURN BIKE PARK
Photo credit: Auburn Bike Park website. Auburn Recreation District had planned a yes or no vote last night on going forward with the Auburn Bike Pump Park at the controversial Maidu location. But, after considerable comment and no agreement, Board members Jim Gray and Scott Holbrook proposed to continue the discussion and vote until the next Board meeting on Oct. 26, and Gordon Ainsleigh abstained. Board members Mike Lynch and Jim Ferris were absent.
Those opposed said are not against building the bike park, only the Maidu location (which affects the Western States-Pioneer Express National Recreational Trail) and proposed the alternate Regional Park Site that is already owned by ARD which has few drawbacks. The pro-bike park folks were numerous, and want this bike park built, regardless of the location.

Good morning all –
The date of the Auburn Area Recreation and Park District (ARD) Board hearing to consider the proposed Maidu Bike Park project and environmental document has been changed to September 28, 2017. This change was made to allow additional time for ARD and the Bureau of Reclamation to review and consider all comments received on the environmental document.
You are encouraged to attend the Board hearing at which verbal comments on the project will be received. The hearing will take place at the Canyon View Community Center (471 Maidu Dr., Auburn, CA 95603). The meeting will start at 6:00pm.
