Redondo Beach Dive Site Development Project
Please plan on attending the Des Moines City Council meeting tomorrow night to support for the Redondo Dive Site Project
Here is a reminder from Mike Racine of the Washington Scuba Alliance:
Hello all,
Just a quick reminder that we will be presenting on the Redondo Beach Dive Site Development Project to the City of Des Moines Council tomorrow night at 7:00PM. Attached is the council’s meeting agenda. We are right up front. If you can make it, it would really help to show the support the project has within the dive community. If you plan to come, if possible, wear some kind of dive-related shirt or hat or pin.
The meeting location is:
21630 11th Avenue S
Des Moines, Washington
Hope to see you there!
Mike

I hope it all went well.

Re: Redondo Beach Dive Site Development Project
Yeah, this was really poorly timed for me. Any way for me to provide comments outside of the meeting?

Re: Redondo Beach Dive Site Development Project
Is there a public comment period and contact person/place that will allow us to communicate directly to the Des Moines City Council and/or whomever the agency that is overseeing the environmental aspects of this project? (similar to discussions put forth by Jen re: Saltwater restorations)

Here's a link to videos of the Des Moines meetings.
The links didn't work for me but I am at works so maybe they'll work for others.

Senator Karen Keiser was instrumental in helping us secure this investment in recreation infrastructure and the dive community. If you have a minute, it would be nice to send her a thank you note. Her email is karen.keiser@leg.wa.gov

Also, a huge "THANK YOU!" to everyone that is volunteering their time to support this project!

The latest update from WSA
Hello all,
I thought you’d like to know that Rus Higley was able to connect the Redondo Dive Site project design to an advanced landscape architecture studio class that took place this spring in the University of Washington Department of Landscape Architecture. Rus and I met with the instructors and graduate students several times over the last two months to communicate the input from our public meetings. The students marshalled their innovative thinking and creativity to produce some great design concepts. Prof. Iain Robertson has been teaching landscape architecture design at the UW for almost 40 years. His assistant Brooke Sullivan recently returned from her PhD studies at the Victorian Marine Science Consortium in Victoria, Australia where she focused on seagrass biology.
Attached is the flyer the department posted describing the class. They have finalized their concepts for a reef at Redondo, and we wanted to invite you to a briefing at the MaST Center that will be presented by the students.
Unfortunately, the briefing has to be conducted during the day to accommodate the students’ schedules. We will forward all the presentation materials via email after the briefing.
Here’s the invitation. Hope you can swing by to hear it in person, otherwise, we’ll send it via email.
Thanks, Mike
REDONDO REEF DESIGN PROPOSAL
Wednesday, May 30, 2--4.30pm
Highline MaST Center
Redondo Beach Drive, Des Moines, WA
Please join faculty and students from the University of Washington's Department of Landscape Architecture for a presentation of our design proposals for the Redondo Reef at the Highline Community College Marine Science and Technology Center (MaST) on Redondo Drive, Des Moines from 2 to 4.30 pm on Wednesday, 30 May, 2018.
Our imaginative design proposals combine the wisdom of science with the insights of art to create ideal reef conditions for the development of complex marine ecosystems and engaging diver experiences.
We appreciate the opportunity we have had to work with MaST staff, WSA divers and teachers, and Des Moines city officials along with University of Washington marine and materials experts to develop our schematic plans for the new reef. We are excited to share our design proposals with you in an engaging and interactive presentation and look forward to seeing you on Wednesday 30 May!
