State Park Planning Meeting Tuesday

OLYMPIA—The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission will hold a meeting in Dayton next week to help develop long-term recreation and land-use plans for three local state parks: Palouse Falls, Lyons Ferry and Lewis and Clark Trail.

The public is invited to learn more about the planning process and to provide input at the meeting to be held Tuesday from 6 to 8 p.m. at Dayton Elementary School.

Planning for these parks will involve three main objectives:

• Classify park lands to determine the appropriate level of recreational use.

• Delineate a long-term park boundary to identify lands with shared management objectives, or land that may be appropriate for transfer.

• Prepare a park management plan for each park.
