Minutes from the August 2, 1979 second meeting of the North Clear Zone Recreation Plan Advisory Committee, held at the Highline Community Center, covering proposed recreational uses for land near Sea-Tac Airport's north clear zone. Topics discussed included an Earthworks Art installation, FAA density guidelines (1.5 people per acre), a possible 9-hole golf course, ATV facilities, use of Sunset Jr. High School, and passive park development around Tub Lake and Lake Reba. Lee Atwood was elected Chairperson, and the committee agreed to reconvene with the consulting firm to develop workable recreation plan recommendations within FAA constraints.

This document contains planning materials for North Sea-Tac Park from around 1979, including a base map of the park and four alternative development concept plans ranging from fully passive (nature-focused) to fully active (sports and recreation facilities). It also includes a roster of the North Clear Zone Advisory Committee, dated July 10, 1979, listing approximately 40 community members with their addresses, phone numbers, and areas of recreational interest such as golf, baseball, trails, and general planning. The materials reflect community input efforts related to land use and park development in the airport noise impact zone near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

This January 1974 planning document lists proposed Highline neighborhood parks and trails, detailing 29 potential park sites with their proposed locations, acreage, acquisition costs, and development priorities. Sites such as North Shorewood, Salmon Creek, Arbor Lake, and Parkside are evaluated, with acquisition costs ranging from zero to over $82,000 and development funding noted in varying stages. The document also references a Highline Bike Route and Des Moines Trail, reflecting mid-1970s green space planning efforts in the communities surrounding the Sea-Tac Airport area.
