Phase one of a bicycle skills course makes its way around the perimeter of Hamllik Park, in Washougal. Phase two of the project has been put on hold, because a $34,560 contract with Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance did not consider prevailing wage and permitting requirements.

Children who were looking forward to trying new moves with their bicycles on phase two of the Washougal bicycle skills course will have to wait, now that city officials have determined prevailing wage and state and local permitting requirements were not fully considered in a contract.

Washougal Public Works Director Trevor Evers said the city notified the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance on Dec. 20 that the contract for the Washougal Bike Park Design-Build Project was being terminated.
