DESCRIPTION

Description

Located Between Wildwood Trail and Issaquah Creek along Wildwood Blvd Trail to hatchery intake. Private and City ownership. Mature shade canopy and native vegetation being lost due to English Ivy and other weed infestation. If site is developable, pursue a restoration easement with private property owners to allow for restoration focused on retaining the existing shade canopy through riparian vegetation enhancements on top of slope of west bank.

Opportunities, Constraints, and other Considerations

Some knotweed removal has occurred. The site has steep slopes and is covered with ivy, which makes restoration potentially very expensive. Site is owned by a partnership with the intent to develop the area; however, there is disagreement about whether the site is actually developable.
