Minter Creek Phase 1
- Status
- Funded in 2009
The Key Peninsula Metropolitan Park District will use this grant to buy 8 acres at Minter Creek. The land will provide access to a prime chum salmon fishing area as well as serve as a canoe and kayak launching spot and trail head for a water trail. Buying the land also will preserve the pristine estuarine, riparian, and upland habitat surrounding the creek by preventing damage from housing development. Lastly, the purchase will allow the park district to work with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife to provide education, habitat protection, and trail connectivity. The park district will contribute $120,000 in cash. (08-1124)
