Category Overview
The State Lands Development and Renovation category provides funding to two state agencies to repair, renovate, and develop outdoor recreation facilities on existing recreation lands. As the popularity of outdoor recreation increases in our state, these grants help address overcrowding, ensure our outdoor amenities are safe for public use, improve visitor experience, and allow more people to enjoy our great outdoors.
Project Highlights
The Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife will use this grant to redevelop the Mattoon Lake water access site located on Mattoon Lake within the City of Ellensburg. WDFW will install an ADA compliant vault toilet, accessible parking, pathways, an accessible fishing float, new entrance sign, and barrier rock. The primary recreation opportunities provided through this grant are fishing and wildlife viewing.
