Its main focus is sensitive resource protection. The plan prioritizes tactical response strategies based on locations where spills might occur and the proximity of those locations to natural, cultural, and economic resources at risk of injury. By using this document it’s hoped that immediate and proper action can be taken to reduce spilled oil’s impact on sensitive resources within the planning area. After a spill occurs, control and containment at or near the spill source are top priorities. Beyond those efforts, the tactical response strategies provided in this plan should be implemented using the priority tables in Chapter 4, unless overflight observations, spill trajectory models, or unique circumstances dictate otherwise. This plan also provides specific information about the type and location of natural and economic resources in the area. Specific information about the location of cultural sites were taken into consideration in the development of this plan but such information cannot be provided in this document due to the confidential nature of the resources. 6 GREEN RIVER/DUWAMISH GRP OCTOBER 2015 RECORD OF CHANGES Name of Person Date Change Number Summary of Changes Making Change June 15 Original Release Update of Purpose and Use, Chapter 1, Chapter 3, W.

  • 2020 Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan Technical Supplement
    City of Tukwila Parks, Recreation and Open Space Plan TECHNICAL SUPPLEMENT State of the System Summary TECHNICAL SUPPLEMENT A Parks and recreation are a big part of community livability in Tukwila and a major asset and responsibility for the City. Services provided by or coordinated with the Parks and Recreation Department are wide ranging and provide opportunities for physical, mental, and social well-being. This summary describes the different aspects of parks and recreation services to provide a baseline of information for the Parks, Recreation & Open Space Plan update (the PROS Plan). Along with ideas and feedback gathered from the community engagement opportunities, key findings from this summer will help inform decisions related to community needs, recommendations, and priorities in later steps of the planning process. The City has been planning for the future of parks and recreation for decades, providing guidance to base decision-making and future investments. The context for planning is also based on adopted plans, policies, and studies related to comprehensive planning, land use, environment, transportation, and regional and state guidance. The following provides a snapshot of some of the key planning and policy documents related to the parks and recreation system. STATE OF THE SYSTEM SUMMARY | 1 The Countywide Planning Policies (CCPs) supports the regional VISION 2040 by providing guidance for growth management issues in King County. Plans and policies adopted by local jurisdictions must provide conformance with these policies. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Elements of the Comprehensive Plan guides decision-making that is consistent with state and local policies, and community priorities.

  • Green Tukwila 20-Year Stewardship Plan
    Green Tukwila 20-Year Stewardship Plan ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Green City Partnerships program started in 2004, comprises a network of public-private ventures between Forterra, local government agencies, businesses, organizations, and citizens. This effort set the stage for engaging the public in ongoing stewardship of urban forests and natural areas and was expanded into cities throughout the Puget Sound Region with the formation of new partnerships. We developed the Green Tukwila Partnership based on these efforts, creating a plan to address the needs of the Tukwila community. This important work was funded, in part, by a generous grant from Boeing’s Healthy Communities Initiative.
