You're Invited    Public Meeting to discuss Fort Nisqually Living History Museum's long-range plans: Wednesday, Nov. 18 6:00 p.m. Metro Parks Headquarters 4702 S. 19th St.

About the Process    With the Point Defiance Park Master Plan Update nearly finished, Metro Parks planners are moving forward as promised and asking the public to participate in more detailed work for several focus areas within the park. Up next: Fort Nisqually Living History Museum. A public meeting will be part of a process to help Metro Parks develop long-range capital improvement and programming for the Fort. The meeting will take place in the Metro Parks Board Room, 4702 S. 19th St. Metro Parks' consultant Weatherhead Experience Design Group, which has worked with the Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI), EMP Museum, and Chicago History Museum, will help lead the conversation. A steering committee also has formed to help guide the process. Additional public meetings will be announced after the Nov. 18 meeting. We'd like your input! Anyone who wishes to give input but can't attend may call Chief Planning Manager Fraser at (253) 305-1019 or email him at dougf@tacomaparks.com. Information about the process and other aspects of Point Defiance Park planning also will be available through DestinationPointDefiance.org.
