g-spot;
having grown up in seattle and living the first 36 years of my life there until transplanting to grays harbor, i feel by having experienced both lifestyles i am able to comment.
you wish for public access thru private lands, a wonderful notion if all things are equal. i wish to fish or swim in lake washington from bill gates' property, or from any one of the residences on mercer island. is that ok? probably would get met with resistance, carted off to the looney bin just for asking.
one of the saddest sights i see, every time i come north, is the continuing growth in the kent valley, formerly wonderful farmland and river access, not to mention wetlands which had great waterfowling. yet the environmetal concerns of the state continue to sell out to development, turn this way and want us to allow public access, and increase setbacks from 50' to 200'-a significant impact on our ability to use our own properties, yet with no reduction in taxes.
until the mismanagement of natural resources in puget sound is corrected, please do not try to mandate to us here how to manage our lands for your benefit.
best wishes for a perfect world
