Wiki page on pump tracks.
This is a short video on how to ride a pump track.
This link is from the American Ramp Company's website on modular pump tracks.
Here's a page of pump track photos.
Here are some excerpts from How to Ride a Pump Track and Why You Should:
“It’s kind of like a small rollercoaster that you can ride on,” says Eric Porter, a pro mountain biker who built a pump track in his own backyard. “It’s a tool to increase your handling skills on the bike, and it’s also something that’s really fun to ride.”
The beauty of a pump track, Porter says, is that it’s accessible to almost anyone and for all ability levels. You don’t have to be an advanced rider—don’t be surprised if you see a 2-year-old out there shredding on a balance bike. It’s a learning tool that’s fun for everyone.

Summary/Background: Town of Taos Policy requires Council approval on all budget transfers that transfer funds between costs categories, (i.e. Personnel, Operating Expenses and Capital Outlay, interfund transfer, budget increases, project to projects and new projects. This adjustment in the Special Events Enterprise Fund will decrease the unreserved fund balance and increase expenditures in the amount of $102,500 to cover the anticipated costs for the upcoming 4th of July event; it will also transfer $7,500 for the event from the line item that was not named at the beginning of the fiscal year due to the unforeseen status of events because of COVID-19.
Summary/Background: Discussion, consideration and possible approval of out-of-state travel for Detective Fidel Cordova to attend Officer-Involved Shooting and Use-of-Force Investigations Training in Colorado Springs, CO from June 20, 2021-June 23, 2021.

Paseo project will be painting crosswalks during the Farmers Market, on Saturday the 26th, and request that the entire Plaza be closed from 7am - 4pm. The Farmers Market will take the opportunity to use the north side of the Plaza for a "Community Day," and invite service organizations/nonprofits to set up tables and tents.

This project will entail the reconstruction of Taxiway A and Connector Taxiways A1, A2, A3, A4, and A5. The PER and Design portion of the project were respectively completed under AIP -3-35-0041-034-2018 and AIP 3-35-0041-035-2019. The report provided three rehabilitation solutions to the FAA, State and Town. The conclusion was, due to the insufficient existing asphalt pavement thickness, milling the asphalt and overlaying the milled surface is not warranted. Therefore, Taxiway A and Connector taxiways will be reconstructed. Taxiway A provides the only access from Runway 13/31 to the existing apron. The pavement strength for a portion of the reconstruction of Taxiway A will meet the same strength as Runway 13/31. Beyond the apron, there is a portion of Taxiway A, from east end of apron to end of runway 4 that will meet the FAA approved fleet mix. The connector taxiways will be designed to meet the same fleet mix as the used for the aster portion of Taxiway A. Existing Taxiway A2 will be completely removed per the approved ALP. The remaining connector taxiways will be renumbered and signs replaced accordingly. These pavement sections have been reviewed and accepted by FAA. Taxiway A width will be 50 feet up to the eastern edge of the apron. All other new construction will have Taxiway widths of 35 feet.
Approximately 3,880 feet of Taxiway A, the portion of Taxiway A tied to the Runway 13/31 taxiway system will be designed to accommodate Taxiway Design Group (TDG)-3 standards and Airplane Design Group (ADG) - II standards. This will provide a taxiway to the aircraft parking apron that meets the standards for those aircraft regularly utilizing Runway 13/31. The other 1,370 feet of Taxiway A will be designed to accommodate TDG-2 and ADG-II standards. This is consistent with the need to accommodate th aircraft currently utilizing Runway 4/22. The pavement geometry design will be in accordance with FAA AC 150/5300-13A. Specifically, Tables 3-5, 4-1, and 4-2 will be utilized to determine appropriate pavement geometry and required separations.
Connector Taxiways A1, A3, A4, and A5 will be designed to accommodate TDG-2 and ADG-II standards to accommodate the existing aircraft utilizing Runway 4-22.
The pavement sections were designed to accommodate the FAA approved aircraft fleet mix, which was completed with the project design in AIP No. 3-35-0041-034-2019, FAA FAARFIELD software was utilized during the design of the pavement sections. The Preliminary Engineering Report developed the pavement sections to be used in the design.
New pavement markings were designed to meet FAA AC 150/5340-1M. Type III glass beads are specified for the painted surfaces.
Shoulder grading is required. Underdrains will be installed under the Taxiway. Culverts will be installed as required.
The airport PACS and SACS are in the proposed work area and be demolished. A new set will be set for the airport in this project.
Retroreflector edge markers will be designed for new taxiway construction. A separate bid schedule will be designed for LED lights to be installed for the new taxiway construction.
Summary/Background:
During the 2018-2019 winter season, Taos Air launched air service to Austin and Dallas which resulted in a quantifiable increase in GRTs and Lodger's Taxes for the communities around the Enchanted Circle. The 2019-2020 air service was expanded to add two new California destinations of Hawthorne/LA and Carlsbad/San Diego and was well on its way to exceeding the previous year when the Covid-19 pandemic hit and the flights were grounded. Taos Air will begin its summer service to all four destinations on July 1, 2021. The Town applied and received a marketing grant in the amount of $200,000 with a match of $200,000 from Taos Ski Valley, Inc. as approved by Council in the FY 2021-2022 interim budget.
