These basins were evaluated using a prioritization <br />tool called FutureShed, which ranks each basin, from most impaired due to impervious area to leas t impaired by <br />impervious area. The analysis showed both basins have the highest impairment levels and best potential for improvement <br />through developing underutilized lands and road retrofits. The City's PROS (Parks, Recreation and Open Space) plan also <br />identified Swamp and North creek as having less than twenty-five percent tree canopy and higher contingents of <br />vulnerable populations that need resources, opportunity and investment to help connect them to green and natural <br />spaces. The WRIA 8 Chinook Salmon Conservation Plan (2005) and the WRIA 8 10 -Year Update of the Salmon <br />Conservation Plan (2017) identified riparian planting and streamside landowner outreach and education about riparian <br />stewardship and BMP implementation as key implementation strategies needed to protect and increase watershed <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 7FA61F69-7F37-4B7B-8E00-24BAE208A655
