Mountain Trails Foundation Executive Director Lora Anthony expressed concerns about e-mountain bike use spreading to the broader Park City trail network. She said East Village will have 50 miles of e-mountain bike friendly trails that the city should direct people to use.

“I think that there is a little bit of short sightedness here. There are, as far as we know, no enforcement plans to keep e-bikes from bleeding out onto the rest of the trail system. That is going to be a big concern,” Anthony said.

Anthony also questioned how the city would measure whether or not the pilot program succeeds.

“I would urge you not to put the cart before the horse, please let’s think about the long term consequences of the votes you take today,” Anthony said.
