Salina Motocross/Mountain Bike Park denied over neighbor agreement shortfall
Summary
Salina City's request for a motocross/mountain bike park was denied because the council found no legally binding easement or maintenance agreement with a neighboring property owner concerned about noise and dust.
Salina City requested $350,000 (plus $200,000 RTP) to build a motocross track adjacent to the Blackhawk Arena. During the presentation, a neighboring landowner raised concerns about noise, dust and privacy; city representatives said they would formalize fencing, dust‑control watering and operating hours.
Council members concluded the assurances were insufficient without a formal, legally binding easement or maintenance plan with the neighbor. The council denied the request and invited the city to reapply in July if it secures the required legal agreements.
