THE GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE FESTIVAL
LAKE FOREST PARK LEGACY
It’s our green future…
Saturday, June 23
9:00 AM – 12:00 Noon
Third Place Commons, 17171 Bothell Way NE
What do our parks, trails, natural drainage, gathering places, and natural spaces have in common? They are all interconnected to form the “green infrastructure” that creates a livable Lake Forest Park.
Citizen input is crucial to making the plan a success. The planning process has four phases that include: information gathering, formulating a vision plan, identifying priorities, and strategies for making our vision real. The public will be invited to three different forums at specific phases in the planning process. There will be an interactive Internet process following each of the forums.
The City’s goal is to increase the connections among our existing resources and plan for parks, trails, shorelines, streets, basins, streams and green spaces for current and future generations to enjoy.
- Learn about “Green Infrastructure” and why it is important

- Provide input on your vision and priorities for recreation, green space, walking trails, our city’s livability
