The San Angelo Parks and Recreation Advisory Board voted on May 7 to recommend a lease for a BMX course covering 2.15 acres near Lake Nasworthy in Hot Water Slough Park—local track designers will build the course at no cost with volunteer help.
The proposal will go to City Council for review in late June or early July.
