A resident asked the council to convene a work group to pursue a trail connecting Bayshore to the Marina, saying he had been told Mason County has $3.4 million in road funds available for trails and that the Navy previously indicated willingness to grant an easement. The resident asked council and staff to engage the Squaxin Island Tribe and county commissioners to explore legal and land‑use issues and to report back.

The resident said county Commissioner Randy Netherland and local long‑time resident Mark Ziegler had discussed the possibility and that Cameron Henry of the Squaxin Tribe expressed interest in participating; he requested to speak to councilmember Jordan and attend the tribe's monthly meeting next Monday. City staff agreed to follow up with county and tribal contacts and to help form a work group if the council directs it.

No formal action was taken; the item was presented as a citizen request and staff indicated they would coordinate next steps with county and tribal partners.
