Point No Point Restoration Community Mtg #10

Please join the community learning about the feasibility of restorting the Estuary at Point No Point. Point No Point was historically a tidally-influenced salt marsh fed by a small stream which wound through the marsh to the north, where there are now houses. The lighthouse on the site is the oldest standing lighthouse in Washington. When it was built in the late 1800s, the marsh was diked and became a freshwater marsh. Mid Sound is working with Kitsap County, local tribes, natural resource agencies, and the surrounding community to study the opportunity to restore this area back to critical salt marsh habitat. Together with Blue Coast Engineering, we are exploring options to return tides and fish to the marsh, address problems caused by the existing tide gate, and develop a multi-benefit project for salmon and the community. This is a HYBRID MONTHLY MEETING (on Zoom and In Person at the Greater Hansville Community Center) . This meeting is generally held from 5-6:30pm on the LAST THURSDAY of the month. Please check the Project Page for updates, and here on the Events Page monthly for changes to this schedule. Your input and participation are a valued part of the project. Please RSVP here to attend
