A few weeks ago, we got word that the City of Mukilteo had established a new park rule that would essentially ban diving from the Mukilteo Lighthouse City Park. (Formerly Mukilteo State Park).
Northwest Dive Club • View topic - Mukilteo Lighthouse Park - NO diving?
People were organized. Letters were written. Phone calls were made, and it looks like the city is willing to take another look at their revised list of rules pertaining to Scuba Diving in Mukilteo.
Our members have spoken with a number of prominent people in the diving community. Mike Racine of the WSA, John Rawlings of the NWDC, and Janna Nichols of REEF will all be there to speak to the Council members.
The rest of us are just going to show up to support our speakers, and to impress upon the city how important this site is to the local diving community. I want to be perfectly clear here, the City is very receptive to us at this point. We've been very cordial, and diplomatic and have opened the necessary line of communication necessary to get this rule overturned. Now we just need numbers. This is one last push, to invite our fellow divers to attend this Council Meeting and show our support. All this will happen Monday night March 2, 2009 at the Mukilteo City Council Meeting at 7:00 pm
Mukilteo City Hall
Address: 11930 Cyrus Way
NEW Phone Number: 425-263-8000
Council meetings are held in the City Hall Council Chambers on the first and third Mondays (Monday March 2nd) of each month beginning at 7:00 PM unless posted otherwise.
Following the Meeting, several people will be heading over to the famous Mukilteo Diamond Knot Brewery for a cold one.
