Status
Funded in 2010
WWRP Applicant: City of Sumner WWRP Category: Trails WWRP Grant: $272,594 Applicant Match: $272,594 Project Type: Development County: Pierce  Legislative District: 31st 

Sumner will use this grant to build a trail that will run about a half mile along the southwest bank of the White River in the core of Sumner. The western end will connect to an existing trail at the confluence of the White and Puyallup Rivers. It then will travel across three privately owned parcels in Sumner, and through a residential neighborhood for about 1600 feet. This proposed trail will be a vital link to the Interurban Trail, Puyallup River Trail, and the Foothills Trail. The city will contribute $349,869 in cash and a private grant. (08-1262)

RCO Project Number: 08-1262

Location

The trail is located in Sumner, WA near the intersection of SR-410 and SR-167. The trail runs from the confluence of the Puyallup and White Rivers, upstream along the White River, parallel to West Main Street to Bridge Street Bridge. The proposed western connection can be accessed from the Traffic Avenue exit from SR-410. Take Traffic Avenue to the north for less than a quarter mile and then take a left on State Street. The end of the existing Confluence Trail is on the right just before State Street goes under the highway. West Main Street is just a few blocks north of State Street and intersects with Traffic Avenue and Bridge Street at the same point.

State Senators cherry pick projects, ignore WWRP rankings

The State Senate's proposed budget slashes Washington Wildlife & Recreation Program funding to almost half of what Governor Inslee recommended while favoring poorly ranked projects over highly ranked ones. The WWRP's independent ranking system is the key to its years of success, ensuring only the best projects get funded. Take action & urge your legislators to restore full funding today!

LWCF full funding bill reintroduced

Sens. Baucus (MT), Burr (NC), and Wyden (OR) & 4 cosponsors have introduced a new bill, the “Land and Water Conservation Authorization and Funding Act of 2013,” to provide full, permanent and dedicated funding for LWCF. Please join us in asking Senators Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray to renew their support and once again co-sponsor the bill!
