State willing to meet with Tulalip Tribes over park


The state of Washington won't sell a new beach park to the Tulalip Tribes but is willing to accommodate tribal concerns about the development, the state parks director said.

The state is restoring the 430-acre Cama Beach State Park. But most of work is on hold due to the discovery of four tribal ancestors and remains.

The tribes have offered to buy the land but hasn't mentioned a price. Both sides have agreed to meet to discuss the issue.
