Port plans open house

The Port of Whitman County will host a public input session on proposed upgrades to the Boyer Park Marina near Lower Granite Dam at the Colfax library Monday, Sept. 17, from 4 until 7 p.m. The port is redesigning the Boyer Park Marina and is looking for public suggestions on what the design should include. The initial focus is to modify docks 1 through 7, improving access and overall dock condition.

The Port will submit the design to the Washington Recreation and Conservation Office as part of a future grant request.

Project information and updates will be available on the Port’s website.

A consultant team led by Mott MacDonald is developing the design based on public input and study of the marina’s current operations and needs. The Sept. 17 open house will allow the public to view design proposals and to critique them.
