Updates to North Bend’s Parks Element are one step from final adoption after a unanimous council vote on August 18th. Formal approval is expected in November with the rest of the 2026 comprehensive plan update.
Council members thanked city staff, the Parks Commission, the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe, and residents who weighed in. The approved updates include Tribe docket requests, changes from public comments, and revisions tied to a park impact-fee study the city has underway with consultant FCS Group/Bowman.
