This petition is addressing the issue that there are no adequate BMX parks in the reasonable proximity of the Ahwatukee Foothills area (Phoenix, Arizona 85048). Please note that there are several skate parks vs. only one BMX park even available within an hour drive. With the exception of Mesa Reeds skate park which allows both skaters and BMXers (still too far to drive for the average Ahwatukee resident). With rising gas prices and limited time, these BMX parks are very difficult to utilize. I strongly suggest that out of equal opportunity, there needs to be a bike park built in the Ahwatukee Foothills area. Please act soon because as the popularity of BMX continues to grow, so will the typical bike spots such as local gas stations, grocery stores, neighborhoods, restaurants, and parks Please support putting a BMX park in the Desert Foothills Park in Ahwatukee! Thank you for your support!

I have been meeting with local planning staff to discuss why Desert Foothills Park is the right site for a BMX track. Call your city council representative today to tell them that our neighborhood needs safe places to ride.

The momentum behind this campaign proves that our neighborhood is tired of driving an hour just to ride. Call the parks department office today and demand they put a bike park in Desert Foothills Park. Post the petition link on your Facebook page to keep the pressure on.

About time someone spoke up about this. Ahwatukee has been ignoring the bmx community for way to long.

The kids are always riding on the sidewalks in our neighborhood because they have no other choice. It is a safety hazard for everyone involved.

Finally! My son is always trying to ride in the shopping center parking lots and it drives the store owners crazy. We need a proper place for these kids.

It is so annoying that all the parks here are just for skaters. My brother wants to ride his bmx but there is literally nowhere close by.
