Council orders temporary orange fencing at Maricopa pump track after security concerns
Summary
After public concern about security at the new bicycle pump track, the Maricopa City Council voted to install temporary orange safety fencing immediately and confirmed existing “no trespassing” signage.
The Maricopa City Council voted to install temporary orange safety fencing around the new bicycle pump track as an immediate safety measure.
Council Member James Owens moved to place orange safety fencing "as soon as possible until [a] temporary fence process can begin," a motion seconded by Council Member Crystal Harris and approved by the council (Ayes: 5). City Treasurer Dorine Horn told the body that multiple "no trespassing" signs had been placed earlier that day, and council members discussed fence specifications and signage options.
City Administrator Eric Ziegler explained that responsibility for security can vary based on whether contractors still have equipment on site, and council members weighed contractor vs. city responsibility before adopting the temporary measure. Resident Richard Albright had raised concerns about pump track security during the public-comment period earlier in the meeting.
