WA State Parks Commission Meetings

State Parks and Recreation Commissioners post the agendas for their working and public meetings two weeks prior to each meeting date.

 

Writing to the commissioners prior to a meeting ensures that your letter or email will be included in the meetings' minutes and informs the commissioners that we are continuing to pay attention to the development plans at MPSP.

Two public comment periods are part of each meeting.

First, at the opening of each public meeting, three minutes per speaker are allotted for public comment on any topic - this is a good opportunity to voice your concerns!

Second, during the course of the meeting, you may address specific topics that are on the agenda at that meeting.

All meetings can be viewed online two weeks after the meeting.

Check this website for instructions on how to sign up to speak at the meetings:

​​

Continue to lobby our state, local, and county representatives, and Parks' Director, Commissioners and planners. Emails, letters, and calls all help to let them know of citizen opposition to their destination development plan.

Let's keep asking questions of our elected officials. How will they hold State Parks accountable for stated policy goals on climate resilience, stewardship, and the protection of coastal habitats and mature forest lands vs Parks' MPSP destination park development plans?

 

See our Questions and Concerns section for ideas on topics to address.
