Washington Department of Transportation (WSDOT) crews were out Wednesday mowing vegetation along State Route 104 to help prepare the Edmonds Marsh Restoration site for upcoming volunteer work coordinated by the Edmonds Stream Team. See our previous story for a complete description of the project.

To be clear for the readers, the City of Edmonds continues to forbid Stream Team access to the majority of the Marsh which is controlled by the city.
This wonderful volunteer work is on a small section of State owned property that runs along the highway just before the Shellabarger Steam turns west into the Marsh. Thank-you Stream Team for continuing to protect & restore this stream.
Thank you Washington State for your continued support of the Edmonds Marsh restoration effort.
That is great to have cooperation with WSDOT! Most of the stream blockage today though, is within the actual marsh. For some strange reason, our mayor is giving the stream team the silent treatment after repeated requests to permit access to work in the marsh. Prior city administrations said volunteers are expensive, and should be turned away, no reason to think that that attitude has changed in the “new” administration.
