This new group plans to work on initiatives such as looking into a plastic bag ban in Sammamish as well as encouraging local businesses to compost and recycle.

Key members of the group include Mary Doerrer, former Sammamish Parks Commissioner, Denise Darnell, and Hank Klein, the current Sammamish Parks Commission chair.
