The proposed project is for the acquisition of the 3.9 acre Anderson Property located at the confluence of the main stem and east fork of Issaquah Creek in olde town Issaquah. The project site is an "in-holding" surrounded by other city-owned park properties including: Issaquah Creek Park; Cybil-Madeline Park and the City Parks Maintenance Facility (also known as the Creek Confluence Park area). With inclusion of this property, approximately 15 acres of land will be set aside as a downtown community park. The property owner has requested that this portion of the creek confluence park area be named Tolle Anderson Park, after his grandfather. The City of Issaquah passed an Open Space and Parks Bond in November 2006 and the bond set aside funds for acquisition of the property. In addition, the City has been successful in obtaining grants through the King County Conservation Futures Tax Levy Program and the Salmon Recovery Funding Board for this property acquisition. The City anticipates designing a community park that features and highlights the natural resources of Issaquah Creek plus providing passive recreational opportunities for the public. This park will be a community gathering place for the residents and will be the "crown jewel" of olde town Issaquah.
