Seattle Parks and Recreation Invites Community to Review Green Lake Integrated Aquatic Vegetation Management Plan

Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR) invites the community to the second public meeting for the development of the Green Lake Integrated Aquatic Vegetation Management Plan on Wednesday, November 20, 2024 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Please join us at the Hearthstone at Green Lake Chapel, 6720 E Green Lake Way N, Seattle, WA 98103.

During this meeting, you will have an opportunity to speak with the project team and review the draft plan that includes key elements and future steps for the Integrated Aquatic Vegetation Management Plan. SPR and the consultant team have been working closely on developing the plan with a stakeholder group composed of state, county and local aquatic resources staff.

Since the 1980s, SPR has managed aquatic plants due to finding Eurasian watermilfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) and Brazilian elodea (Egeria densa) in the lake. This plan provides an outline for future management strategies. The final plan will be completed and shared with the public by the end of 2024.
