North Bend Hosts Open House for Shoreline Public Access and Trail Plan

On September 25, 2024, the City of North Bend will host an Open House to discuss the North Bend Shoreline Public Access and Trail Plan, aimed at improving recreational access along the Middle and South Forks of the Snoqualmie River. The event will take place at North Bend City Hall, starting at 5:30 p. m. , and is an opportunity for community members to learn about the plan and offer their feedback. A brief survey has been made available for residents to share their thoughts on shoreline access and usage, which will be instrumental in finalizing the plan.

This initiative is supported by a grant from the Department of Ecology, which focuses on enhancing climate resilience and the implementation of local shoreline planning priorities. The plan aims to establish a cohesive network of access points and trails, benefiting both residents and visitors. Additionally, the project will enhance communication regarding shoreline jurisdiction as regulated under the North Bend Municipal Code. For further details, community members can reach out to Senior Planner Jamie Burrell via phone or email. This public engagement effort underscores the importance of local input in shaping community resources.
