Lacey Updates Stormwater Plan, Olympia Seeks Bike Park Permit

πŸ”Š Listen Β· narrated by Aiden

The City of Lacey is updating its Stormwater Strategic Plan, a guide for stormwater utility activities and ratepayer information, with public comments due July 13. The plan applies to Lacey's incorporated limits, not Olympia.

Olympia City Council is seeking approval for a 71-acre mountain biking park at 2549 Black Lake Blvd SW. The project includes 3.5 miles of trails, two pump tracks, skills stations, a restroom, parking lot, and infrastructure. The application was issued May 28 with comments due July 15.

Other developments include a Tumwater subdivision proposal at 2701 and 2719 70th Ave SW, and a shoreline restoration project near Yelm. Thurston County is reviewing a rural subdivision at Big Horn Estates and a grading project in Tenino.
