BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA STAFF REPORT
AGENDA DATE: April 3, 2018
ACTION REQUESTED: Request to Approve a Special Event Application to hold the
annual Manastash Metric Bike Ride event on October 6,
2018.
BACKGROUND: The Commissioners office received a Special Event
application from Carol Findley on behalf of Central
Washington University and the Retired Senior Volunteer
Program, to hold the annual Manastash Metric Bike event on
October 6, 2018.
INTERACTION: The applicant is also requesting a waiver to the following:
Kittitas County Code Chapter 5.20.100 – Penal Bond –
Bond of Indemnity - The applicant has provided proof of
insurance and believes that it should be adequate coverage,
since their ride has proven to have no effect on the roads in
the past. Note there will be no Endorsement provided as
CWU is self-insured- verified with PA and that is acceptable.
The applicant will not need a waiver to Kittitas County
Code Chapter 5.20.160 – Closing Hours since their event
is scheduled to begin at 7:30 a.m. (with staging at 6:00 a.m.)
and according to the County Code, events shall not be open
to the public before the hour of 7:00 a.m.
The permit fee has been paid and Staff has routed the
application and received a recommendation of approval from
the following departments: Sheriff, Public Works, Solid
Waste, Prosecutor, Public Health & the Fire Marshal.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve holding the annual “Manastash Metric Bike Ride –
The Drier Ride” event on October 6, 2018 and to grant a
waiver to Kittitas County Code Chapter 5.20.100, Penal
Bond.
Since Ms. Findley has provided proof of 501C3 and after
discussion with the Auditor’s Office, she will just need to go
on-line to file the exemption.
Public Works recommends the deployment of “bikes on the
roadway” signs along the County Roads and intersections in
addition to placement along Highway 10, and Local
Advertising in the Daily Record/radio/physical posting two
weeks in advance from date of event.
HANDLING: Staff will notify the applicant of the Board’s decision & send
