WWRP Applicant: Snohomish County Parks Dept WWRP Category: Local Parks WWRP Grant: $321,015 Applicant Match: $2,440,369 Project Type: Acquisition County: Snohomish  Legislative District: 1st 

This project would acquire a 26-acre piece of property in southwestern Snohomish County in the Martha Lake community. The property is located within unincorporated Snohomish County, within the designated urban growth area between the cities of Mill Creek and Everett. The owner, who recently died, developed the property as a private community airfield in the early 1950s. The 26-acre site is surrounded by dense, suburban residential development. The property is level and cleared - making it desirable for active community recreational facilities. The surrounding community has expressed support for the site's acquisition in order to preserve it for much needed open play space.
