Lake Sammamish State Park Study
Washington State Parks is considering extensive re-development of Lake Sammamish State Park to improve recreational opportunities, restore and safeguard important natural features and functions, and develop new revenue sources to help support this and other state parks. The park’s largely urbanized surroundings make balancing its recreation, conservation, and financial needs especially challenging. The essential task of this project is to create a plan that finds a balance among these important public benefits.
To assist in this effort, State Parks recently formed a park advisory committee made up of local and regional elected officials, a newspaper publisher and individuals representing tribal, environmental, business, conservation and youth interests and two members representing the public at large.
