City of Las Vegas Department of Parks and Recreation is proposing installing a vault toilet and pavilion adjacent to newly built mountain bike trails and pump track at Floyd Lamb Park. These biking amenities give riders specific places to ride, which will help protect the land and maintain the area's natural beauty while allowing community members to enjoy this area of the park. Without a restroom for riders to use, it's likely that the area surrounding the trails will become a restroom of sorts, out of necessity. The City would like to add the restroom and shade structure amenities so patrons can comfortably use the facility and health and safety best practices are promoted overall. Floyd Lamb Park is a welcome oasis in the desert of northwest Las Vegas. The historic Tule Springs Ranch is tucked inside the park and provides opportunities for visitors to learn about the traditional working ranch and early Las Vegas lifestyle. Municipal ownership of this park began in 1964 when the city of Las Vegas purchased 680 acres and water rights to the Tule Springs Ranch. Over time, the maintenance of the park became too extensive for the City and in 1977 legislation was passed to transfer ownership to the Nevada Division of State Parks. After 30 years, the State transferred the park back to the City in 2007 with deed restrictions, and the City has been working diligently since that time to preserve, protect, and enhance the park. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
