It establishes a path forward for enabling and enhancing high quality, community-driven parks, trails, open spaces and recreational opportunities. This Plan provides a vision for the District’s park and recreation system and addresses goals, objectives and other management considerations toward the continuation of high-quality recreation opportunities to benefit residents of the upper Snoqualmie Valley. This Plan was developed with the input and direction of District residents. The Plan inventories and evaluates existing park and recreation areas, assesses the needs for acquisition, site development and operations, and offers specific policies and recommendations to achieve the community’s goals. MISSION The mission of the Si View Metropolitan Park District is to work in partnership with the community to preserve historic Si View Park and provide opportunities to enhance the quality of life through the facilitation of recreation programs and parks in the Snoqualmie Valley. vii SI VIEW’S RECREATION GOALS & POLICIES This Plan includes a series of goals SYSTEM intended to guide District decision- making to ensure the parks and The Si View Metropolitan Park District recreation system meets the needs of the (Si View MPD) owns 11 acres of Valley for years to come. parkland and opererates the Si View Pool and Community Center, but the These goals and policies were based on District’s influence is so much greater. community input and technical analysis.

The Plan ix x INTRODUCTION Si View Metro Parks - Your Best Backyard!1 BACKGROUND The Si View Community Center and Pool was constructed in 1938 as a Works Progress Administration project for King County and has since served as the recreation hub for the community. In 2002 King County closed several recreation facilities due to budget constraints, including Si View. The local community quickly took action to re-open Si View by running a local ballot measure to form a Metropolitan Park District, which passed with overwhelming support. 72% of residents favored the transfer of ownership to the local community and creation of a local taxing district to support the much needed repairs and operational funding for the community center and pool. After the MPD was formed, its first comprehensive planning effort resulted in the preparation of the The 2006-2011 Comprehensive Plan, which included a recommended capital improvement program

  • Great American Outdoors Act Projects Mountains to Sound Greenway National Heritage Area
    Great American Outdoors Act projects Mountains to Sound Greenway National Heritage Area Mountains to Sound Greenway-Heritage Area Multi Asset Recreation Investment Corridor The Mountains to Sound Greenway National Heritage Area is an iconic 1.5 million-acre landscape in Washington State, stretching across the Cascade Mountains from Central Washington to Puget Sound in Seattle. The Greenway promotes a healthy and sustainable relationship between people and nature by providing nearby parks and trails, connected wildlife habitat, places for culture and tradition, world-class outdoor recreation and education, working forests and local agricultural production, and thriving communities. The Greenway is valued by a broad cross-section of society, working together as an effective coalition to conserve this place and its heritage for future generations. When Congress passed the Great American Outdoors Act in 2020, we knew how important this legislation would be to the state of Washington. For 30 years the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust has witnessed the positive impact access to nature brings to the region for public health, habitat and wildlife, and local economies. Many public agencies, nonprofit organizations, and individuals have worked tirelessly to sustain this abundant access to nature, with outdoor recreation gaining popularity each year. As public agency budgets and staff simultaneously shrink, the backlog of much-needed maintenance for trails and recreation areas has grown dramatically. The Great American Outdoors Act offers part of the solution to this maintenance backlog for public land management agencies, and will benefit all people who live, work and play in the Mountains to Sound Greenway and in public lands across the country.
