MARYSVILLE – While most middle schoolers listen to Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber, those in the 10th Street Jazz Band listen to Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Bennie Goodman.

no to certain things. I have permission to take care of what really matters ‘per my mission.’ ” Kim Reynolds just started the Living Room Coffee House in Marysville four months ago. She became a member of WISE shortly after they began meeting at her coffeehouse in November, and she’s already learned from the group. “I have to multitask with a capital ‘M,’ ” Reynolds

laughed, as she acknowledged the challenges of raising four small children and maintaining a household while also serving as a pastor at the Hillside Church and running a coffee shop. “I have to keep juggling all these balls, but the WISE mastermind meetings have helped me think it through and offered alternatives.” Reynolds acknowledged that her business’ startup costs were more than she

anticipated, and credited WISE with suggesting methods of paying down that debt, ranging from gift certificates to soliciting donations. “Since I’m a nonprofit, they pointed out that I shouldn’t be ashamed to accept donations,” Reynolds said. “I wouldn’t have been that bold, but they really encouraged me to be honest and open about where I’m at and who I am.” Cindi Pedersen, who’s been working with Mary Kay out of Marysville for 25 years, believes in WISE so much that she serves as its membership coordinator.

sized that it’s not a networking group, she asserted its value in connecting women in business who otherwise work on their own. “If you’re running a home-based business like mine, you lack a lot of opportunities to engage with like-minded people,” Pedersen said. “We face many of the same challenges as other business owners, only we don’t have any coworkers to bounce ideas off of.” While networking groups afford their members chances to ask questions of each other, Pedersen appreciates WISE for offering what she sees as more genuine interactions. “You don’t have to have your game face on here,” Pedersen said. “You can come without feeling like you have to present yourself as perfect, and ask for advice without feeling embarrassed.” For more information, log onto www.

Sackman is excited about using the opera house as the venue. “It’s an underused building,” he said. “Hopefully when people get a chance to see it the building will come

alive again.” He said the building is better than he even thought after taking a tour of it. It has a nice stage, sound system and great acoustics. “It will give the kids a chance to perform in a place that’s a little more special,” he said. This will be the second year for the festival. It was such a hit last year with 200 attendees that they decided not only to do it again, but also invite MarysvillePilchuck and Marysville

Getchell high schools to participate. Two bands from 10th Street will perform, as will a choir and band from Totem Middle School. Proceeds will be divvied up among the groups. Each entity spends the funds to purchase music and equipment or repair instruments. Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for students. Kamille Norton, a City Council member and president of the 10th Street Middle School Boosters, also is excited about the

venue. “We chose the Marysville Opera House as our venue because of its beauty, its rich musical history, and its connection to our city and community,” she said, adding they want it to be a community event, not just a school event. “Our band musicians work very hard, waking up extra early in most cases to attend rehearsals before school. So we wanted to provide an opportunity for our student musicians to

have a special and elegant night to showcase their talents and perform for their community.” The jazz bands in middle and high school meet prior to school so they don’t have to compete against other electives. Sackman said he likes his students to learn from recording artists and to experiment with improvisation until they are comfortable with their own personal style. “We refresh, learn the

tune then do a quick audition right before the gig” to decide who gets to solo, he said. Parents of band students will bring a variety of desserts. The Italian soda bar will cost $2 each. They are still lining up auction items. Band representative Karen Davis said they will be happy if they break even. “That takes the pressure off,” she said. “Our only goal is to create a memorable event.”

THE PUBLIC FORUM

Local lawmakers may try to get along

One might think state lawmakers representing Snohomish County routinely break bread to sift out the causes and concerns on which they’ll unite in a legislative session. But you’d be wrong. Attempts to bring everyone together mostly fizzle out. On that rare occasion in recent years when a majority wound up in the same room, fireworks erupted, preventing agreement on any substantive matter except adjourning. As a result, around the Capitol where perception drives behavior, it’s long been perceived that Snohomish County lawmakers don’t speak for the county. And the question of who does isn’t easily answered. In two weeks, another try to come up with an answer will be made. Democrat Rep. June Robinson of Everett, one of the delegation’s newest members, and Republican Sen. Kirk Pearson, Monroe, one of its nicest veterans, are organizing a pre-dawn meeting in a conference room on the first floor of the state Capitol. The purpose, an email Pearson sent to fellow senators says, “is for those of us representing Snohomish County to come

THE ARLINGTON TIMES.THE MARYSVILLE GLOBE

together and discuss issues of importance to our part of the state.” “We’ll see who gets up and comes,” Robinson said Jan. 13. “I think it’d be a great opportunity to see where we agree and, even if we don’t agree, how we can focus our efforts to support our local community.” Robinson said when she entered the Legislature a year ago she was surprised the county’s contingent didn’t regularly assemble and assert its collective political muscle the way it seemed their peers in Pierce County and regions of King County did. Rep. Luis Cornfield Moscoso, D-Mountlake Terrace, has had a similar feeling since he arrived in Olympia four years ago. Snohomish County lawmakers possess the numbers, the talent and the gravitas to directly influence decisions but their lack of synergy undermines that clout, he said. “I’m really hoping people show up this time,” he said. “We need to work together.”

The county is the state’s thirdmost-populous with residents served by 21 lawmakers elected from seven diverse legislative districts. Its delegation, because of the numbers, looms as a threat to lock arms to pass or defeat measures though it never has. There are reasons the delegation has never behaved as a coalition or caucus. Partisanship is a hurdle as much as personality differences among members of the same party. Historic rivalries exist between interests in north and south county as well as urban and rural communities. And finding a day and time when most, if not all, of the 21

people can attend is a practical barrier. There is a price to pay for failing to overcome the hurdles. While it’s hard to pinpoint where the lack of unity harmed the county’s interests, it’s clear when internal divisions cost it opportunities. Consider what travel on U.S. 2 might be like today if two former senators — one Democrat and one Republican — got along. But Democrat Mary Margaret Haugen of Camano Island and Republican Val Stevens of Arlington didn’t. The 2005 transportation package contained no major money for improvement projects along the highway.

And as everyone applauds the rise of Washington State University in Everett today, don’t forget bitter disputes among Snohomish County Democratic members scuttled a branch campus of the University of Washington in the city a few years back.

Marysville wants citizen input for Strategic Plan

What kind of city does Marysville want to be? How do we envision our future, and our identity as the second-largest city in Snohomish County? How can we better meet the challenges of today and position ourselves for a prosperous future, and what are the priorities that will define the actions to get there? These are important questions to answer as Marysville prepares to embark on a Strategic Plan process to help guide the community’s long-term future. Citizens will play an essential role in developing this blueprint for success, helping the City Council and me, department directors and staff to set goals and priorities for city government to follow. How the Strategic Plan evolves must come from many diverse voices throughout our community – citizens, businesses, nonprofit orga-

nizations, youth, seniors, neighborhoods and various ethnic populations. The journey along this path starts with a first step. The soonest opportuNehring nity to do that will be for you to attend our upcoming free one-night winter quarter Marysville University program. We invite citizens to join us for this opening public forum to share comments and ideas for the Marysville Strategic Plan. The forum will be 6:308:30 p.m. Wednesday, February 4, 2015 in the City Council Chambers, second floor in City Hall, 1049 State Ave. The evening includes a staff presentation, a Strategic Plan interactive poll and public discussion.

Marysville has realized many major achievements and significant investments in our community over the past two decades. The Strategic Plan will build on our past and guide us into the decades ahead, better prepared to meet new challenges and opportunities that await, taking actions based on the community’s vision, values, goals, needs and interests. The Strategic Plan will feature an overall vision and mission, as well as: •Specific vision for attracting and retaining businesses and jobs (economic development), •Long-term financial stability, •High quality and cost-efficient public services, and facilities to meet community needs and demands, and •Creating a community that is healthy and inviting to citizens, businesses and visitors.

Information Booth during the Marysville Street Festival last August. We asked guests to place sticky dots on poster boards to tell us their top priority in three categories: Economic Development, Neighborhood Livability and Transportation. Among three economic development options, by a 5-1 margin, participants said the city should pursue downtown revitalization and development of the waterfront into a destination with trail access, retail shops, community space, recreation opportunities and entertainment, ahead of focusing on manufacturing and industrial business recruitment, and retention and expansion of businesses. On the question of neighborhood livability, increasing crime reduction efforts and safety improvements was the top priority, with other choices more evenly split - enhancing and development of more recreational opportunities, creating more trails and bikeways were both slightly more popular priorities than beautification of streets and rights of way. With regard to transportation needs and issues in the community, an overwhelming number of polltakers said monitoring and addressing impacts of train traffic by building a gradeseparated rail crossing should be the top priority. They rated this action ahead of building more street connections, widening roads and improving interchanges, and improving maintenance of existing streets through repaving, and adding more sidewalks and bike lanes. Of course, your priorities in these and other categories may differ. That’s why it is important to become a participant in the strategic planning process. I am excited to hear the opinions and insights shared that will help guide the future of city government and the community we call home. Marysville is committed to supporting individuals, families, businesses and diverse populations as we prioritize and pursue the preferred opportunities that will represent the course of action in the completed Strategic Plan. We encourage you to join us on this journey.

King would be upbeat if he were at the assembly, Lovick said, adding MLK would turn 86 on Jan. 15. He would be happy because of the “beautiful, diverse group of students.” Associated Student Body adviser Greg Blake picked up on that theme when

he talked about the Joint Base Lewis McChord brass ensemble that performed songs like “Happy” at the assembly. “The ethnicity of the band” would not have been possible without the work of King, Blake said. “This week reflect, and think, before you do.” To help her students further understand the time period of King, Roberts

talked about how no blacks played pro football. Could you imagine the Seahawks with no black players? “They couldn’t fathom it,” she said. Roberts said while blacks and other minorities have worked hard for equality, it took “overwhelming support of white voters in America” to pass civil rights legislation.

MARYSVILLE – “Maybe we shouldn’t have Martin Luther King Day anymore.” Cedarcrest Middle School sixth-grade social studies teacher Marilyn Roberts said that to her students when they told her they didn’t believe in King’s nonviolent message. Roberts, who has taught since 1999, said the past five years or so more students seem to think that way. “They don’t buy into it,” she said of King’s passivity. “They think nonviolence is stupid” and think the moreaggressive style of folks like Malcolm X were more effective. It’s not that they don’t respect King, “they just don’t honor what he stood for.” To combat that, she invited County Executive John Lovick to speak at the school’s MLK assembly Jan. 15. She said she asked Lovick to come because he was raised in the deep South and “it took some time before he came around to Dr. King’s methods.” Another part of the assembly was a “We shall overcome” video. “A lot of the students, and their parents, don’t have much knowledge of MLK, other than the ‘I have a dream,’ speech,” she said. In his talk, Lovick said, “Every time I see that video I cry.” He recalled how he was a senior in high school in Louisiana when King was assassinated. Lovick said if King were alive today he would give the students this advice: • Stay in school. Get a better education and become the leaders of tomorrow. “When I was growing up in Louisiana I was always told I’d be nothing without an education.” • Respect others, but start with respecting yourself. Girls should demand that boys open the door for them. • Don’t give up. • Lose the hate. If King were alive today, what would he say to help us? Lovick asked, then responded, “Live in peace and harmony.” Lovick said he grew up with bitterness. He didn’t know his dad and lived in extreme poverty. He said there seems to be a lot of hate in the world, pointing to the riots in Ferguson, Mo., and elsewhere. But hate is a wasted emotion. “Our nation was founded in honor, respect and love. To hate anyone is a burden too much to bare,” Lovick

New chief administrator gives city address

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

SMOKEY POINT — “This will be a last look at 2014, but more importantly, it will be a look ahead to 2015,” Paul Ellis, the new city administrator for Arlington, said as he delivered the State of the City address Jan. 13 to the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce. Ellis attributed the levy lid lift, that voters approved last spring, with helping the city correct its course. “It’s helped us improve our reserve fund and work on equipment replacement,” Ellis said, noting that the city is on track to end 2015 with 50 percent of its adopted reserve fund balance, with the fund at its whole amount by 2019. “It helped raise our bond rating from A-minus to A-plus, which gives us a better rate when we borrow money.” Ellis credited Rotary and local businesses with donating and constructing Haller Park’s new playground, which he touted as enhancing the area’s quality of life. “That playground was the start of us reclaiming the park,” Ellis said. “It had become a place where people didn’t feel so safe. Now, it’s a place where families want to go.” Ellis cited the park’s 24-hour live security cameras, which can be monitored by citizens on the city’s website, as garnering positive feedback. He went on to credit Kirk Boxleitner /Staff Photo

To streamline the Arlington Police Department and make it more efficient, Public Safety Director Bruce Stedman has recommended getting rid of two commander positions, and making one a deputy police chief and the other an on-thestreet cop.

the retirements of finance director Jim Chase and city administrator Allen Johnson last year with underscoring the importance of succession planning among city staff. “I assumed Allen’s role at the start of the year, and Chris Young moved into my old spot in community and economic development,” Ellis said. Roxanne Guenzler has stepped up to serve as the interim finance director, but Ellis recommended to the City Council Jan. 12 that they contract with Prothman to facilitate the recruitment process, with the goal of selecting a final candidate by the end of May. Looking ahead, Ellis listed his primary shortterm goals as completing an activity-based budget process, improving communication between the council and city management, creating a problemsolving team composed of senior management and directors across the city’s departments, updating human resources’ policies and procedures, replacing Chase and “instituting collaborative service delivery between departments.” Ellis reported that the community development department is occupied with a major update to the comprehensive plan, which occurs every eight years. Among the factors considered in the update are the city’s population projections, job creation and zoning, the latter to “make sure

there’s enough retail and industrial space.” The Arlington-Marysville manufacturing industrial center represents years of work between Arlington and Marysville to integrate their roads and infrastructure, to pave the way for an area between their cities to be converted to intense industrial use. Ellis pointed out that the county rewarded those efforts by awarding them with an official manufacturing industrial center designation in 2014. “Arlington has always been a very strong manufacturing community,” Ellis said, citing its average of 1.8 jobs per household. “Now we’re working on getting a state MIC designation, which is the only way we’ll be eligible for federal money.” Another project that both cities are working toward is a regional library. “The Arlington Library is too small to serve its community, and while the Marysville Library is bigger, it still can’t serve the whole city,” Ellis said. Ellis proudly touted Arlington’s streamlined permitting process, which he asserted had trimmed processing times that had been six months or a year down to two weeks or 30 days. “For the second year on sewer and the third year on water, we’ve been able to rescind utility rate increases,” Ellis said. “It’s cheaper for us to produce than it is to pay the PUD.” Not only are water

Ellis noted the cost savings of no longer maintaining that reservoir, and praised city utility and transportation staff for finding matching grants and other funds outside the city budget, without a dedicated grant writer on staff. Among the road proj-

ects slated for 2015 are the addition of parking spaces around the utility building next to Haller Park, the connection of 67th and 74th avenues for freight mobility, and improvements to Smokey Point Boulevard and various residential streets. “We’d put equipment replacement on the back burner for a few years,” said

Ellis, who expects the city to purchase four new patrol cars this year, in addition to the four new patrol cars purchased last year. “We’re also replacing our ladder truck and fire engine this year. Under the new equipment replacement plan, each department will put some money of their own into scheduled replacement funds.”

Arlington police to reduce supervisors BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The first phase of proposed reforms for the Arlington Police Department hinges on replacing two commander positions with an additional patrol officer and a deputy police chief. The deputy police chief is a new position for the city, and public safety director Bruce Stedman discussed it with the City Council at the Jan. 12 workshop. “This is part of our plans to resolve our deficient management structure,” said Stedman, who recommended that the council approve the job description and salary range of the deputy chief position by Feb. 1. The deputy chief position would help the department fulfill the recommendations of a matrix study released last year. Stedman consulted with the city’s human resources department, as well as other police agencies, to develop this position. The deputy chief ’s salary range of $7,341 to $10,466 per month is comparable to similar

cities, and is neither the highest — $8,812 to $11,463 for Tukwila, which has a population of 19,765 — nor the lowest — $6,695 to $8,811 for Mill Creek, which has a population of 18,828. Arlington’s population is 18,664. The two current commanders have applied for the deputy chief role, along with one sergeant. If one or both commanders don’t get the deputy chief job, they’re eligible to apply for either the patrol officer position or a detective spot that’s opened up. When council member Jan Schuette inquired how that vacant detective spot would be assigned, Stedman explained that the two current commanders would have to take the tests and apply if they wanted it. “We can’t just bump them right down,” Stedman said. “We would look at who had the best education, training and experience.” When Schuette checked to ensure that the union contracts didn’t preclude this arrangement, Stedman said that the unions were primarily concerned with bumping rights, while “we follow the civil service rules.”

MG, M-P captains differ in leadership styles BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Senior swim captains Tony Preston and Darien Corcoran-Clark may lead two different high schools, but they are both seasoned leaders. Preston, captain for Marysville-Pilchuck, and Corcoran-Clark, Marysville Getchell’s captain, are the only seniors to have swam all four years. They were obvious choices Jenks, said. “I’ve known them for quite awhile,” said Jenks, who has coached both swimmers since they 11-years-old. “I’ve seen them grow as swimmers and as individuals.”

They have endured swimming throughout high school with a “lot of dedication,” sacrificing winter breaks and weekends to perfect their craft. “Tony does a good job of leading by example based on how hard he works in practice, and Darien is good at cheering and being enthusiastic,” Jenks said. “They have different combinations of leadership qualities.” Corcoran-Clark has been swimming since he was in the fourth grade and played numerous sports like track and football before making swim his primary focus. “I realized I was better at swimming, and I liked the atmosphere,” he said.

He plans to use his physical and leadership skills he has learned from swimming to join the Army and go to Western Washington University to become a history teacher after that. “I learned to be really dedicated and not be selfish,” he said. “I feel like going in there it [the Army training] will be a breeze.” Preston, also a member of the golf team, has learned what he is capable of accomplishing. “I’m stronger than I think,” Preston said. “When I’m swimming the 200 freestyle on my last lap, I have to kick into gear. My legs are really tired, but I keep going.”

Preston has also played a part in garnering newcomers to come out to swim for M-P. “The coolest thing I’ve seen this year is seeing a lot more people,” he said. “I’d go around and talk to them to join swimming. ‘It’s a lot of fun and a lot of work, and you make lots of good acquaintances with your teammates,’” he said. After high school, Preston wants to study mechanical engineering at Everett Community College, but will still “swim to stay in shape and have fun,” he said. Though modest in how they perceive to swim competitively after high school,

Jenks believes they are more than capable. “The great thing about swimming is that you can always find a spot,” Jenks said. “They could find a spot for themselves at division one, but there’s also

division two and three.” “They’re doing a great job as captains,” Jenks said. “I hope our program has helped them become the young men they want to be going out into their adult lives.”

M-P Tommies anxious but still beat MG BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE - Michael Painter said MarysvillePilchuck’s players were anxious playing in front of their home crowd Jan. 13. Even though the Tomahawks beat Marysville Getchell 74-69, M-P coach Bary Gould the Tommies were sloppy. Painter said that was because the players put extra pressure on themselves when they are at home. “I think it was just a little anxiety,” Painter said. “We all like playing in front of this crowd, and the Marysville community, and we wanted to come out andplay our best. I think we were all just a little over our heads.” Painter, Josh Bevan and Cole Grinde scored 54 points to lead the Tomahawks. The trio found their shots behind the arch, combining for seven 3-point goals. MG’s Deyon Robertson scored a game-high 23 points in a losing effort. “I was impressed with Getchell,” Gould said. “They played like they had

a purpose.” M-P improved its conference record to 2-0 and its overall record to 8-2. MG is 0-2 in conference and 3-9 overall. Next week, M-P hosts Oak Harbor Tuesday, Jan. 20, and visits Stanwood, Thursday, Jan. 22. MG visits Stanwood Tuesday, Jan. 20, and hosts Arlington Thursday, Jan. 22. ARLINGTON - The Arlington girls basketball team won its second conference game dominating Oak Harbor 64-11 Jan. 14. Gracie Castaneda led the winners with 10 points. “It was a good game for us, and we executed our stuff,” Arlington coach Joe Marsh said. Arlington is 2-0 in conference and 10-2 overall. Next week, Arlington visits Everett Wednesday, Jan. 21, and hosts Marysville Getchell Friday, Jan. 23. LAKEWOOD - The Lakewood Cougars girls basketball team beat South Whidbey 48-25 Jan. 13. Hayley Senyitko led the Cougars with 16 points and three 3-pointers, and Marissa Blair added 11 points and led with nine

Lakewood currently stands 5-2 in conference and 5-9 overall. “It’s the first time in quite a few years to be in the top three,” Lakewood coach Chris Walster said. “Our goal is to get the first playoff spot in the 2A districts.” Next week, Lakewood travels to Archbishop Murphy Tuesday, Jan. 20, and hosts Kings Friday, Jan. 23.

Lakewood loses, at M-P tournament Saturday LAKEWOOD — Lakewood lost both of its matches to Darrington and Concrete Jan. 14 in a double dual. “It’s a rebuilding year,” Lakewood coach O’Hara said. “I look at performance where we are achieving our goals.

SMOKEY POINT — Downtown Arlington Business Association President Mike Britt said he was overwhelmed when he took over the job a year ago. It got even worse for him when the Oso slide occurred in March. But everything started to come into focus for him with the help of Mary Andersen. Britt grew emotional as he dedicated a new annual award to incoming board treasurer Andersen, whom he cited as vital to the group’s “very successful year” in 2014. “When I took over last January, it was like a dinosaur walking through a living room, but she made everything clear,” Britt said. He noted that Andersen took diligent notes of local businesspeople’s meetings with state and federal governmental officials in the wake of the March 22 Oso slide. “We didn’t know what we needed to be doing, but we knew that this impacted our back yard, so we wanted to document everything.” Andersen, a cancer survivor, even canceled a meeting with her doctor to check a growth for DABA business. “She set the standard for our volunteers,” Britt said. “I rarely get choked up, but she’s been an inspiration to me, and I look forward to seeing what we can do together in the future.” DABA swore in not only Britt and Andersen, but also vice president Brian Bovee, secretary Dana Fowler, 1st board position Zeph Regland and 2nd board position Jeff Phebus. The Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber Board of Directors also bid farewell to three of its members. Chamber board secretary Michelle Heue of Shiraz Specialty Pharmacy, and board members Jean Simpson of Village Community Services and James Eubanks of AFLAC, were honored with certificates as they left the board. Outgoing board president Kristen Granroth, of the Granroth Insurance Agency, singled out Eubanks, crediting him with much of the success of last summer’s carnival in Smokey Point. As her last duty as board secretary, Heue swore in not only Granroth as past president, but also Julie Morse of Opus Bank as president, Carrie Byrum of Avon as vice president, Sid Logan of the Arlington School

District as secretary/treasurer, and Dale Leach, Steve Peiffle, Vanessa Pawley,

Arlington citizens looks at salaries ARLINGTON — The city recently came one step closer to giving citizens more input into the salaries of their elected officials, as the City Council reviewed a draft ordinance to create a Citizen Salary Review Commission. During their Jan. 12 workshop, human resources and communications director Kristin Banfield reminded the council that they had

requested last fall that city staff research and provide a draft on the creation of such a commission, which would periodically review the salaries of Arlington elected officials. Banfield reported the ordinance has been drafted by the city attorney to be consistent with state law. Debora Nelson said that she and fellow council member Chris Raezer had

met with Mayor Barbara Tolbert to go over the proposed law “with a fine-tooth comb,” an assessment with which Raezer agreed. “We wanted to make sure that the commission was as hands-off from us on the council as possible,” Raezer said. “We are not recruiting them, and they will have no influence from us. That way, the process is as open and fair as possible.”

County: Help count homeless for better services Volunteering three hours of time can be a big step in helping end homelessness in Snohomish County. The county needs volunteers to help with the annual Point In Time Homeless count Thursday, Jan. 22. Volunteers work threehour shifts between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Training and materials are provided, and volunteers can choose to work in various parts of the county. “Each year we make

progress toward finding solutions for those who are homeless and those at risk of being homeless,” County Executive John Lovick said. “This count helps us understand where we have gaps in our system and what resources will benefit our most vulnerable residents.” During the 2014 count, 1,272 individuals in 922 households reported they had no permanent place to stay. Of those individuals, 314 – or 26 percent – were

homeless children younger than 18. The count brings together human services providers, county staff and community volunteers to count the number of homeless. Results help ensure the county receives state and federal funds to combat homelessness. To volunteer in North County: contact Tami Krell at 425-231-3575 or TamiKrell@housinghope. org

MARYSVILLE – Police Chief Rick Smith’s goal for 2014 was to reduce crime 20 percent. And his Marysville Police Department almost did, at least in crime-ridden downtown. “That’s nothing to sneeze at,” Mayor Jon Nehring said at the City Council meeting Jan. 12. He added that even though downtown makes up just 1/20th of the city, it previously was responsible for 20 percent of crime. Smith said the actual drop was 19.6 percent, “just a gnat’s hair away.” The chief said one “area where we were plagued” to keep from reaching the overall goal was thefts, which were up 25 percent. As an example, he mentioned that the Kohl’s here ranks No. 1 in shoplifting in its entire chain. The mayor said theft will be a focus point in 2015,

but the stores need to play a role in that. “We can’t have an officer at every big box store in town,” Nehring said. Other than thefts, crime was down 8 percent overall within the city limits. Also discussed at the meeting was a new online crime reporting system. Smith said having that is hard for him because his philosophy has always been “No call is too small.” Operations Cmdr. Jeff Goldman explained the new system’s goal is to reduce paperwork for officers so they can spend more time on the streets. Victims of minor crimes can go online and fill out a report so they can have an incident number for insurance purposes. Goldman said people should only fill out the online report if “there is no

suspect, no witness, no evidence and no follow-up is needed.” On the website it gives guidelines on what types of crimes should be filed. There is a safety net if someone files who really shouldn’t. A light-duty officer double checks the information before emailing an incident case number back to the victim within 72 hours. Goldman said there are many advantages to the system. It eases the workload for public documents. It gives residents more options to improve customer service. And crimes that may go unreported because they “didn’t want to bother you guys,” will now be known. Community Development Director Gloria Hirashima said two lawsuits filed against them have been settled in their favor.

Library offers tech advice BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — In the wake of the winter holidays, many older folks are figuring out how to use the high-tech presents they’ve received, and the Arlington Library is happy to help. Kelli Bragg, technical liaison for the library, conducted the first “Gadget Guidance” seminar of the New Year Jan. 10, but she noted that patrons can schedule consultation appointments at their leisure, even to answer the simplest of questions. “One thing we do tell people is that they need to know their account information and password before they come in,” Bragg said. “People will come in with their Kindles and not know their Amazon accounts, which is something you usually find out when you

purchase your Kindle. Also, never store your account information and password in the same place.” While certain e-readers come with instruction manuals, Bragg acknowledged that many manuals are found on the devices themselves, which isn’t necessarily helpful to those who don’t know how to use those devices yet. Fortunately, Arlington Library staff are well-versed in dealing with Kindles, iPads, Nooks and even smartphones such as Android. “A lot of people think you can’t read e-books on a smartphone, but you can,” Bragg said. Bragg still encounters patrons who are surprised that they can borrow e-books from the library. “We have lots of them, both fiction and nonfiction,” Bragg said. “In fact, with the Gale Virtual

Reference Library, we have a number of encyclopedias, biographies and even scientific studies online that we don’t have on our shelves.” Bragg conceded that getting started on such device tends to be difficult, but reassured patrons that it should get easier to use their

devices over time. “After you’ve set up your account, you usually only have to do it once,” Bragg said. “What you experience that first time is not typical of how your experiences will go afterward.” Bragg even touted features that make e-readers

more convenient for older library patrons than regular print books, such as the ability to change the size of the text, so they can be read without glasses. “Don’t be scared of the technology,” Bragg said. “It won’t break if you download a book, and if you have any

questions, you can contact us to set aside half an hour to an hour to go over your device.” The Arlington Library is located at 135 N. Washington Ave. For details, call 360-435-3033 or log onto www.sno-isle.org/ locations/arlington.

prior to July 4. If the city decides on a ban, it would go into effect July 4, 2016. The council quickly approved a number of agenda items that were discussed at the previous week’s work session. • Amendment of sign codes that were unclear and misunderstood. • Amendment of city code regarding commercial kennels and pet shops.

• Amendment of code regarding: parks, recreation, open space and trail impact fees; school impact fees; and traffic impact fees. • Amendment of code regarding geologic hazards.• Reception of a grant for $136,749 to fund Grove Street sidewalk improvements from State to Cedar. The city’s cost would be $311,023. • Termination of a six-

month moratorium on Master Planned Senior Communities and removing that previously permitted use in various zones. • Participation in a Snohomish County overlay

program for roads that costs half of what traditional overlay costs. • Approval of the 3,100 square foot addition to the police evidence building expansion at a cost of almost

$104,000. • Vacation of a stormwater detention pond near 172nd waiving compensation in exchange for new public roadway and roundabout work.

MARYSVILLE – The City Council had a number of housekeeping chores to do at its first meeting of the New Year Jan. 12. Community Development Director Gloria Hirashima talked about the desire to continue the Performance Award Program at the city. She said the program, started in 2013, follows a “private sector concept” of giving employees an incentive to go above and beyond the normal expectations, which already are excellence. She also said the city is working with high school production classes to make videos of all the different city departments and post them on the city’s website. The first one, on the Parks and Recreation Department, features parks director Jim Ballew as the host. “Jim is our very own Regis” Philbin, council member Kamille Norton joked. Also at the meeting, Public Works director Kevin Nielsen said the city has obtained a $422,000 grant to help pay for traffic signals in town. Also on the city’s website is a survey on if residents want to get rid of Fourth of July fireworks or not. The survey will advise committee members chosen to help make a decision about that

Oso, M-P honored at governor’s state address By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

OLYMPIA — Gov. Jay Inslee outlined Tuesday his plan for the state this year, drawing inspiration from those affected by tragic events in Marysville and Oso last year. While Inslee’s speech focused on the future, he made sure his address didn’t ignore the Oso mudslide, in

which 43 people died last March, and the shootings at Marysville Pilchuck High School in October, in which five teenagers died. At his invitation, the Marysville Pilchuck High School concert choir performed the national anthem, and Oso Fire Department chaplain Joel Johnson delivered the invocation. “These are communities which have suffered signifi-

Johnson said he had wanted to be sure he set the right tone for the governor. He also didn’t want to linger at the podium. His comments and prayer lasted two minutes. “We’ve had a lot happen this last year that has affected our state,” Johnson said in a preamble to his prayer. “One thing that has stuck out to me most is our ability

to come together. “I have seen a sense of community that I have not seen in a long time amongst the citizens of Washington. From Oso, from Arlington, from Darrington, from Marysville to the fires in Central and Eastern Washington, it’s just amazing,” Johnson said. “My hope and my prayer for the rest of this year and years to come is that we can continue this sense of unity and that it doesn’t always take a great disaster to do so,” he said. The Marysville Pilchuck choir’s 30 members stood in

two lines in the center aisle of the House chamber as they performed a four-part harmony. John Rants, the choir director, said he reached out to Marcy, a longtime friend, because he knew the arrangement to be poignant and appropriate for an event of such magnitude. Students had never done the rendition in front of such a crowd. “It was a great honor,” said Jessica Hamilton, a Marysville Pilchuck junior. “We all knew we were asked to come because of the tragedy. This shined a light on it and showed that great things can come out of such a negative.” Senior JJ Valencia said he didn’t feel any pressure representing fellow students because he was already feeling pressure to perform well. “All eyes were on us down in the center,” he said. “It was really cool to be able to come out to the Capitol and meet the governor and be part of this.” As for the address itself, Inslee used his State of the State address to argue for new taxes on carbon emissions and capital gains to pay for fixing roads, funding schools, combating climate change and reducing economic inequality. The governor also called for passage of a transportation package, more money for early learning programs, a freeze on college tuition increases, a higher mini-

mum wage, paid sick leave for workers and tax rebates for the working poor. Republicans later dismissed the governor’s call for new taxes, which Inslee said would ensure that public schools are adequately funded, as required by a state Supreme Court decision. Republicans said the state will collect $3 billion in additional revenue from taxes and fees over the next two years, which should be enough to cover a boost for education. As for the carbon tax, Republicans think industries will pass the cost to customers in some form. “We are absolutely willing to consider pollutionreducing ideas that will work and that won’t place such a terrible burden on the hard-working people of Washington state, particularly those in the middle class,” said Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton. No greater challenge faces the state than reducing carbon pollution, the governor said. He called his proposed cap-and-trade program, requiring the largest industrial polluters to pay for every ton of carbon they release, a proven means of reducing emissions. “We have a moral obligation to act,” Inslee told a joint gathering of the state Senate and House of Representatives. “I will not — and in the deepest part of my heart I hope you will not — allow this threat to stand.”

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.

CRIME REPORT MARYSVILLE – An Everett man is in custody after reportedly robbing at gunpoint from two men at a fast-food restaurant who had won about $5,000 at a casino. At about 7:45 a.m. Jan. 11, the two men, ages 24 and 28, were robbed at gunpoint at the Jack-InThe-Box in Marysville by a 32-year-old Everett man they had met earlier at the Quil Ceda Casino on the Tulalip Reservation. The victims, who had won about $5,000 between them, left the casino to get food at

a nearby McDonalds. They had mentioned to some people at the casino where they were headed. The victims felt uneasy when they noticed one of the men started to follow them. They ended up driving to the Jack-In-The-Box in the 1100 block of 4th Street. The suspect got in the victims’ vehicle, and the three men went through the drive-through then parked to eat. The Everett man then reportedly pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the head of the driver. The

two men handed over their money, and the suspect fled. A Tulalip police officer obtained a still photo of the suspect from surveillance video obtained at the casino. A suspect and vehicle description was sent to police throughout Snohomish County. Shortly after 10 a.m., Mill Creek police located the suspect at a local business. The suspect was taken into custody after a short foot chase. Anyone who has information is asked to contact Marysville detectives at 360-363-8350.
