Series 2: Wellington Hills Park, A closer look at Wellington Hills, The north side of 240th St SE

This is the second of a series of photos made between 2012-2016 of Wellington Hills Park. 

This set is a portrait of the topography and trees located to the north of 240 SE Street. 

Snohomish County and Northshore School District have BIG plans for selling/buying then changing everything you see in the photos.

Who speaks for the Land? 

For Snohomish County and Northshore School District, the Wellington Hills Site is nothing but a parcel of land … 104 acres to cut and flatten for development. 

The idea of preservation of a relatively natural park or preserve is irrelevant. Basically, they’re OK with continual sprawl… as is seen in Southern California… mile upon mile of asphalt and development. To them, a park is a place somewhere else, preferably on a parcel of land not suited for development (see Minor’s Corner on 228th, which is built over gas lines and under power lines).

If you want to see what Northshore School Plans are - drive north on 35th Ave. from Maltby Road ... go approximately a mile and you'll see the new North Creek High School... drive around it... it's big and there's plenty of new houses (some still under construction) packed tightly together next to the school.

Take a look at their idea for the future of Wellington Hills Park.

ps: The legal battle continues. Join us in stopping inappropriate development in the Wellington Hills area.

Series 1: Wellington Hills Park, The vew, a drive-though

This is the first of a series of photos made between 2012-2016 of Wellington Hills Park.

Here's a drive-through of Wellington Hills Park (aka "the site"), beginning on 240th Street, just east of the commercial area, with the last photos at the intersection of 240th & 75th (aka Bostian Road).

Snohomish County and Northshore School District have BIG plans for selling/buying then changing everything you see in the photos.

If you want to see what Northshore School District's plans are for Wellington - drive north on 35th Ave. from Maltby Road ... go approximately a mile and you'll see the new North Creek High School ... drive around it... it's big and there are plenty of new houses (some still under construction) packed tightly together next to the school.
