STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVES:
1.4 Business and Institutional Partnerships
3.4 Active Recreation 4.2 High Quality Urban Approach 6.5 Parks, Trails & Open Space
BACKGROUND:
Master Plan Amendment:
On November 6, 2017 the City Commission approved Resolution 4811 adopting the Westlake Park Master Plan. The concept plan was initiated through funding by the Midtown Urban
Renewal District as it relates to the buildout of the West Aspen Street “Festival Street” design and
123
which terminates at the park’s west boundary. Diagonal parking along the N. 5th Avenue park frontage will benefit park users and the festival street businesses and patrons.
As the Midtown Urban Renewal District began construction of the West Aspen Festival Street
design in 2020 including the new parking and sidewalk along N. 5th Avenue, significant disruption within the park was anticipated, particularly to the dirt jump tracks currently maintained by SouthWest Montana Mountain Bike Association (SWMMBA). Additionally, Gallatin Valley BMX (GVBMX) was developing plans for their next round of park improvements
including but not limited to new bleachers, a new announcer booth, and other maintenance and
drainage projects. Over the course of the last year, Parks Division staff has met with the these user groups and others involved with the Children’s Memorial Garden to move forward with the appropriate round of
improvements for the Westlake Park Master Plan. It became apparent that the concept location for
the dirt jumps between BMX and the garden created a significant constriction for all groups. Placing the highest point of the dirt jump starting hill closest to the adjacent residential properties is undesirable as well. With those concerns at the forefront, a new location was chosen that roughly uses the same location for the tracks but shifted north and east. The new routes will be
curved and there will be two starting hills to allow users with different levels to spread out. This
new location will allow the dirt jump set to benefit from the shade provided by boulevard trees along N. 5th Avenue, will provide BMX’s expanding program a large, elevated Event Lawn immediately adjacent to their viewing area, and sustain the more intimate setting for families using the Children’s Memorial Garden.
Cash-in-Lieu of Parkland Summary: The 2020 Westlake Park Cash-in-lieu of Parkland Application (Application) has been prepared by Gallatin Valley BMX and SWMMBA representatives with assistance from the Parks
Division and input from the project engineers for the festival street, Sanderson Stewart. The
primary elements of this proposed construction phase are to commence a formal design and permitting process, perform significant site grading using excess excavated material from the Midtown streets project, relocate utilities cutting through the park, resolve drainage issues and formalize the north end of the park that has historically seen illegal dumping. In addition, it will
fund several smaller-scale improvements for GVBMX’s growing program. As shown in the
Application, the grant partners have contributed significant amounts of volunteer labor within the park for several years and their commitment to in-kind labor has been and will continue to be a large value to the project (see “Project Estimate and Matching Contributions Summary” below).
A second round of funding will be needed in addition to the Cash-in-lieu of Parkland in order to make the dirt jumps operable within a reasonable timeframe, construct them according to professional industry standards, and to provide additional support to GVBMX’s program for the
benefit of the neighborhood and safety of users. These items are also outlined in the application
materials as they will be submitted to the Midtown Urban Renewal Board for additional support in the late winter/spring of 2021.
CILP Requirements: Section 38.420.030.F. of the Bozeman Municipal Code (Cash donation in-lieu of land dedication), states the following:
1. The city must use a cash donation for development or acquisition of parks to serve the development.
124
2. The city may use the cash donation to acquire or develop parks or recreational areas within its jurisdiction or for the purchase of public open space or conservation easements, only if:
a. The park, recreational area, open space or conservation easement is within a reasonably close proximity to the proposed development; and
b. The city commission has formally adopted a citywide park plan that establishes the needs and procedures for use of the cash donation.
Because Westlake Park is classified as a Neighborhood/Special Use Park in the Parks, Recreation, Open Space and Trails Plan which is the city’s “formally adopted citywide park plan” and the outdoor recreational BMX and mountain bike courses located there serve the entire
community, use of general cash-in-lieu of parkland (CILP) funding for this grant proposal is
appropriate per 38.420.030.F.1 and 2. As stated in Chapter 7.5.1.14 of the Parks, Recreation, Open Space and Trails Plan (PROST), BMX is an important facility for teenagers though people of all ages. The same age demographic uses the mountain bike course. PROST defines the Recommended Level of Service for BMX at 1:30,000 and recommends an additional facility be
created by 2020 in Table 7-10. Despite that, BMX has stated that this facility will serve their
program growth for several years. Additionally, because discussions for a new mountain bike park (Bikefill) are in a very preliminary phase, it is important to invest in the existing facility, particularly while it has been disrupted in the first round of construction.
According to grant criteria, the proposal must demonstrate that the improvements will:
• add to the long-term benefit of the park and surrounding properties;
• reflect the interests of, and have the support of, adjacent property owners; and
• comply with the existing park master plan.
Staff finds that the application does meet these criteria. As stated above, in the justification for the 2020 Westlake Park Master Plan Amendment and prior adoption, the buildout of Westlake Park will benefit not only the neighborhood but the entire community. Relocation of the mountain bike course to the northwest corner frees up space for BMX’s programming, provides additional serenity at the Children’s Memorial Garden and puts the highest point of the facility
internal to the park/at the streetscape rather than immediately adjacent to residential properties.
A detailed description of project cost and funding sources is provided within the application. The total estimated cost of this phase of construction is $279,530 with $193,500 being requested for Cash-in-lieu of Parkland with the remainder being in-kind contributions and funding from City
Forestry. The Parks Division has coordinated with the user groups and neighbors as described
above.

Westlake BMX Park Phase One Proposal
Overview:
Westlake BMX Park was created in 1973 as part of the Westlake’s Fourth Subdivision to the
City of Bozeman. The 5.9-acre park is located on the southwest corner of North Fifth Avenue
and West Tamarack Street and is within the Midtown Urban Renewal District. The District Plan
adopted in November 2015 identified the park as an opportunity to further enhance public
activity centers within the Midtown Area.
There are multiple user groups engaged in activities in the park, with the largest being Gallatin
Valley BMX (GVBMX). Additional user groups in the park include SouthWest Montana Mountain
Bike Association (SWMMBA), a community garden site managed by the Recreation Division,
and the Children’s Memorial Garden, originally installed by volunteers, and currently overseen
by Compassionate Friends.
Since May 1981, Gallatin Valley Bmx has been building and improving the BMX course, working
alongside the city to maintain and enhance the park, and provided a program with substantial
growth for families in the community. GVBMX maintains a BMX course that is sanctioned by the
American Bicycle Association. The course is open to the public to enjoy during non-race times
and is solely maintained by volunteer efforts. They have a user agreement with the Parks
Department, which includes an annual fee paid to the City of Bozeman for use of the park.
Gallatin Valley BMX is a nonprofit organization guided by a volunteer Board of Directors whose
children actively participate in the local BMX program. All improvements and maintenance for
the BMX course and park over the years have been sustained through volunteer efforts,
fundraising, community support, and in-kind donations. Over the last 39 years Gallatin Valley
BMX volunteers have put in thousands of hours each year to keep the track and park a clean,
safe, and inviting place for families in the entire valley. The continual yearly growth to their
bicycle program as well as their commitment to the community make GVBMX an indispensable
asset to the park, community, culture, and the City of Bozeman as a whole. Over the years they
have had the privilege to host events that draw participants from all over the North West Region
which has greatly contributed to Bozeman’s economic growth. In addition to a successful
bicycle program they also provide a reading program for school-age children across the valley
and are working towards introducing a STEM program into schools as well.
Southwest Montana Mountain Bike Association, formerly “The Dirt Concern,” represents
mountain bikers in southwest Montana and has about 2000 members. The group has had an
established presence in Westlake Park since the early 2000’s. Averaging around 400 volunteer
hours a year, SWMMBA has logged over 1600 hours since SWMMBA took the lead on the
project in 2016. With ever increasing popularity, Westlake BMX Park has made a mark on the
community and surrounding areas by being the only city park that provides for freestyle and
BMX biking. With two dedicated user groups (GVBMX, SWMMBA) Westlake park has become
the best bicycle specific park in the state of Montana and has the potential to set a precedent for
135
other cities in Montana. Over the course of the past 5 years, SWMMBA has located and
delivered around 1800 cubic yards of clay dirt to the site to improve and expand the dirt jump
set. This has improved the rideability, progression and all-around quality of the dirt jumps and is
no doubt the best public dirt jump set in the state. The adjacent road construction project on
Aspen and 5th has allowed us to stockpile enough additional material to regrade the park and
improve the future dirt jump build.With Covid-19, the demand for expanding the park has
become even more apparent. Now, every day of dry weather sees a steady flow of bikers using
the dirt jumps and spectators watching from the hill to the east. Expanding the start hill would
help the park serve more people and also allow them to keep more distance. Because of the
special features in Westlake Park, it is more of a destination and community center for those
who are otherwise just out for a walk.
Westlake BMX Park user groups are applying for a $198,870 Cash-in-lieu of Parkland Grant to
help implement phase 1 of the park master plan. The conceptual master plan was adopted in
2017 and is being amended along with this application.
Describe existing conditions in the park:
Currently, the dirt jump course has been cut into with the implementation of the back-in angle
parking along 5th ave. and will need to be repaired. The open green space on the south side of
the park is in need of a new irrigation system to effectively water and promote growth. The
bleachers in the park are falling apart and are in need of replacement. The announcers booth is
dilapidated. The BMX course start gate technology is outdated and in need of constant
maintenance and repair. The north side of the park has been neglected for many years and is in
need of a complete reconstruction. There are multiple grade variances throughout the North side
of the park and the lower lot space, (used for a “dump zone” over the years), becomes a mud pit
during the rainy season. There is a small irrigation zone on the North East section of the park
which is maintained by the city parks division. There is no known irrigation system or zones
throughout the rest of the north side of the park. There are multiple piles of construction debris
and miscellaneous items that have been dumped into the park over the years. Currently there is
a large stockpile of material from the 5th Ave. construction project that will be used in part to
carry out phase 1 projects. The Children's Memorial Garden is in the North East corner of the
park and is in the process of being revamped and brought back to life.
Proposed Improvements:
Safety Gate: The start gate technology to the BMX Course is outdated and in need of
constant repair to remain functional. Pro-Start Safety gates are equipped with the newest safety
technology and promote a quiet rolling barrel gate. This enhancement to the track will not only
provide a safer option but also drastically reduce the noise pollution to the surrounding
community. In order to install this new gate some structural changes will need to be made to the
existing start hill on the track. This improvement will not only benefit the surrounding community
by reducing the noise pollution in the area but will also benefit the Bozeman community as a
whole by enhancing the safety standards on the track.
Funding to
be requested
from
Midtown
URD
136
Bleachers: With the current growth of the BMX program in the park and projected growth for
the next few years, additional seating and the availability to provide ample distancing in seating
is needed. Aluminum frame bleachers with chain link guardrails and double floor boards will
provide additional seating and meet safety standards.
Concrete Work: Concrete bleacher pads will allow for a stable surface for the spectator
bleachers and cut down on the ground maintenance. Concrete slabs for the staging area and to
extend the existing sidewalk the full length of the fence as well. This surface work will provide
for ease of bike traffic up to the start hill and cut down on the overall maintenance due to mud
and erosion.
Irrigation/Landscaping: The entire southside of the park is in need of a full
irrigation/sprinkler system overhaul. The existing irrigation is non-functional and as a result of
this the once beautiful grassy lawn has died. Cost reflected is to re-evaluate zones and install a
new irrigation system for the south side of the park. Remaining funds will be used to seed the
lawn and any landscaping efforts that may need to be done to return it to lush “green space” in
the park.
Shade Structures: There is a prevalent need for adequate shaded areas on the South
Side of the park. Proposed amount will be used to provide shade structures for the BMX course
start area and for the staging area. These two spaces are identified as high use areas and
would greatly benefit from shade in the higher summer temperatures.
Announcer Booth: The current structure has been a staple of Westlake BMX Park and
the BMX program. Over the years through the generous help and support of our community
volunteers we have maintained and repaired any damage to this structure. With climate, general
wear and tear, and many years of use it is time to replace this structure. The proposed amount
will cover permits required to build a new structure, materials, and any electrical work that will
need to be completed. All labor for the new booth will be covered by GVBMX Volunteers.
Soil Tac for the BMX Track: As the years pass we are actively seeking ways to
improve the BMX Course for the bicycle community as a whole. This last year GVBMX
purchased and applied this liquid adhesive to the surface of the track to try out the effectiveness
and sustainability of this process and application. The initial track prep and application was
carried out by all volunteer efforts from the BMX community and produced over 300 volunteer
hours that weekend alone. The overall results for the season concluded that applying this
adhesive to the surface allowed for less damage to the track surface (resulting in less
maintenance), less environmental impact (minimizing storm water run off), quicker drying times
when it does rain (allowing for more public accessibility to enjoy the track), and a consistent
track surface throughout the season (improved riding surface for overall community use).
Funding to be requested from Midtown URD
137
BMX Track Drainage: The current track drainage needs to be revamped and upgraded.
These funds will allow for the repair of the current drainage system and upgrades/
re-constructing of areas as needed.
Site Plan Application: This will be contracted through Sanderson Stewart by the city
parks division and will include the following scope of work:
~Design site improvements anticipated to consist of revisions to the pump track, irrigation and
some minor landscape improvements, along with civil documents to prepare a Site Plan
Application package.
~Existing Conditions Plan- Topographic Survey Sheet
~Provide landscape design to consist of reseeding of construction disturbance, some small
landscape improvements along the revised pump track and North 5th Ave., grading and an
updated irrigation plan (moving existing lines/main/valves and heads) for Site Plan Submittal
~Provide Civil grading and StormWater Plans for Site Plan review and approval
~Prepare Site Plan Application Checklist and supporting documents
~Opinion of probable cost for Phase 1 Improvements
Utilities on the North Side of the park: Removal of the existing power line,
installation of a new electric line, and water line installation.
Storm Drain for the North side of the Park: Proposed amount for an engineered
storm drain.
Dirt Equipment Rental: Machine and power screen rental to strip the existing dirt for the
Dirt jump course.
Irrigation/Landscape for the North side of the Park: Design and install
irrigation zones and sprinklers to the entire North side of the park. Any additional funds will be
used to seed and for any landscaping to cultivate open green space on the North side of the
park.
Trees: Proposed amount to add 20 total trees to the park including boulevard trees along the
North and West perimeters of the park.
Start Hill/ Stramp for the Dirt Jump Course: An engineered design for a new
start hill possibly consisting of a combination of stairs and ramp features. The versatility of this
feature will allow for a contemporary start hill for the jump course as well as provide additional
opportunity for spectator seating. The specific details for this feature will be completed with the
Site Plan process in collaboration with Sanderson Stewart. The proposed cost estimate may
fluctuate depending on the materials and final design decided upon.
$20K requested from CILP; additional to be requested from Midtown URD
138
Labor: An additional amount is proposed for the labor to strip the existing dirt jump clay and
to Re Grade the surface area on the North Side of the park. This labor will be contracted out
through the City Parks Division.
