Vancouver, WA – Park and outdoor recreation enthusiasts are invited to a public meeting on Dec. 8 to provide input on the future of Lower Daybreak Regional Park. The meeting starts at 7 p.m. at the Daybreak Primary and Middle School Commons, 1900 NW 20th Ave., Battle Ground.
Lower Daybreak Regional Park is part of Daybreak Regional Park and Boat Launch, which is located at 26401 NE Daybreak Road, between the cities of La Center and Battle Ground. This 112-acre undeveloped property is located on the south bank of the East Fork Lewis River, west of the boat launch.
At the public meeting, project staff will invite comments on a draft concept plan for the park. This plan is based on input from a public meeting in October, funding, partnership opportunities and environmental considerations. It will show the types and locations of recreation opportunities proposed for the park. Input from the Dec. 8 meeting will be used to finalize the concept plan to be included in the park’s overall master plan.
People unable to attend the Dec. 8 public meeting may still participate. Presentation materials will be posted on the project Web page along with an electronic comment form starting Dec. 9. All comments must be received by Dec. 23. The Web page address is: www.clark.wa.gov/legacylands/LowerDaybreak.html.
This planning project is funded by regional real estate excise taxes, which are paid when properties are sold. The county must complete a master plan before development can begin. A master plan identifies a preferred mix of recreation uses and facilities that may be included on a specific park property. The county will install the park features included in the final master plan when funding and partnership opportunities are available.
For more information, please contact Pat Lee at (360) 397-2375 ext. 4070, or by e-mail at Patrick.Lee@clark.wa.gov.
