King County, the City of Seattle and the Regional Open Space Strategy (ROSS) Team seek your expertise and views on a strategy to create a healthy, prosperous future in the Green/Duwamish Watershed.

Your participation is vital! It will lead us to greater understanding of current projects, priorities and plans in the watershed, and ensure we develop a framework to support better outcomes for local cities, forests, farms, rivers, diverse communities, and Washington State’s industrial core.

Meetings take place from 5 to 7 p.m.

Participants will be able to visit several information stations, and meet one-on-one with strategy representatives to ask questions and share feedback:

• What priorities are not currently represented in our maps and fact sheets?
• What are aspirations for the Green/Duwamish Watershed communities?
• What are the threats to healthy air, water, land and people in the Watershed?
• Where and what are the opportunities for the Green Duwamish Watershed Strategy to create a robust, connected open space system?
