Local land owners and <br />stakeholders also attended many of the site tours to share local knowledge and ensure accurate trail <br />planning and documentation. <br />Meetings, Workshops & Events <br />Three community events were held at Putnam Centennial Center in Cie Elum Washington in 2017 and <br />2018. <br />1) The first meeting presented the team's site analysis, including documents issues & <br />opportunities, goals and potential recreational program enhancement ideas. The goal of this <br />meeting was to receive feedback on site conditions, project goals, and trail typology. This <br />meeting was the first opportunity to show a regional map including motorized recreation <br />opportunities. <br />2) The second public meeting focused on presenting and discussing a series of Alternative <br />Concept Plans. Feedback on the positive and negative aspects of each alternative trail system <br />plan were documented and integrated into the following design iteration. <br />3) At the last public event, the design team presented the Draft Master Plan and sought <br />comments on how the plan reflected public expectations and if there were any changes <br />desired before finalizing the plan in this report. <br />Site Analysis <br />Land Ownership <br />The majority of the land within the project area is private land. Approximately two thirds of the Cle Elum <br />Ridge area, including the ridgeline itself, is owned by Central Cascades Forest LLC (CCF). CCF lands are <br />managed by The Nature Conservancy of Washington (TNC). TNC welcomes non -motorized public <br />access and limited snowmobile use on its land. In all, TNC manages about 49,000 acres of CCF lands in <br />the region that are interspersed (checkerboarded) with adjoining public lands. CCF lands were acquired <br />Towns to Teanaway Corridor Master Plan p 13 of 26 <br />Prepared for: Economic Development Group of Kittitas Co. & Kittitas Co.
