Wheels Park proposal, traffic camera changes on Bremerton's agenda

Bremerton's Parks and Recreation Commission last month heard a citizen proposal to build a new Wheels Park at Sheridan Park, featuring a pump track, covered skate court, and bike polo space. The commission also reviewed the 2027-2028 biannual budget and considered a grant application for Lions Park court improvements. No votes were taken; minutes have not yet been published.

Parks commission weighs Wheels Park proposal, budget

The June 23 Parks and Recreation Commission meeting included a presentation from a citizen coalition seeking a commitment for a pump track, covered skate court, and bike polo area at Sheridan Park. The proposal, labeled "Wheels Park," was discussed but no decision was recorded.

Director Barker presented the 2027-2028 biannual budget for review. The commission also considered a Community Development Block Grant application for Lions Park court improvements.

Staff updates covered several projects:

• Kitsap Lake Park ribbon cutting scheduled for June 26.
• Downtown fountain repairs: the lowest bid received was approximately $250,000.
• An update on homelessness response property management was provided.
