King County Land Conservation Initiative
Vision: protecting the remaining high conservation value lands and securing our regional trail network within 30 years.
Bold vision demands a bold, pragmatic plan
With more people comes the need for more green space.
Open space is infrastructure
We still live in a place of spectacular natural beauty
The time to act is when the opportunity is here
We've been at this
for awhile.
190,000 acres protected since 1970.

finish the job.
