The EPIQ S 200 track is expected to last seven to ten years; the entire facility cost $2.4 million shared by the city, high school, and Single Tax Corporation. (The city provided addition $150K for unexpected drainage work.)
Track surface color will be gray with eight lanes, according to the contract.

McElheeney Construction is the primary contractor; completion expected by the end of the year.
