SUMMARY: Currently nine acres of Eurasian Milfoil and Fragrant Water Lily engulf Kitsap Lake
Park's wetland, public boat launch, fishing pier and swimming areas. Coupled with increased nutrient
load, this negatively impacts habitat and water quality, creating toxic algae blooms and health
hazards to both humans and wildlife alike. This project will remove the aquatic weeds in this defined
area abutting the city park and conduct community outreach with lakeside property owners. This
community outreach is the first step towards soliciting feedback towards a long-term maintenance
plan for all of Kitsap Lake.
The grant amount requested will be approximately $20,000. A minimum 1:1 non-federal match of
cash and in-kind goods and services is required and will consist of cash donations and force -account
labor for grant administration, contract management, and public outreach.
ATTACHMENTS: Resolution No. 3301 authorizing Grant Application; Exhibit A: Grant Application
FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): If funded, the $20,000 grant will be matched with
cash donations and in-kind/force-account labor.
