Lund's Gulch/Lund's Creek

Status
Funded in 1998
WWRP Applicant: Lynnwood Parks & Rec WWRP Category: Urban Wildlife Habitat WWRP Grant: $420,372 Applicant Match: $887,570 Project Type: Acquisition County: Snohomish  Legislative District: 21st 

This acquisition project begins purchasing properties along Lund’s Creek which are targeted for development and are needed to protect a watershed. The long term goal is the preservation of the Lund’s Creek basin and Meadowdale County Park. This will preserve the entire region for use as open space and wildlife habitat. Since 1980 local schools have been releasing salmon into the stream and working to improve the stream and surrounding habitats for wildlife survival. More intense development is expected in the near future and protection of this public area is vital.

RCO Project Number: 97-1113
