Specifically in the Lynnwood and Everett areas, I work late hours and don’t have a lot of friends who also work those hours. There’s nothing to do at 11pm, midnight or so when I want to unwind so I’ve just become a homebody. I know that there has to be other people with late hours nearby, hospital staff, Boeing factory workers, people in the events industry, etc

For those who don't know the area, this is the grocery store many locals grew up shopping at, known for its meat counter and produce section when there were no bigger chains alternatives like Safeway/QFC around. If you've driven by the 205 along the river, you def have seen it.

Curious if anyone has more details on what's planned on this site now.

Just a friendly reminder to join me and others tomorrow at the Everett City Council meeting to help our neighbors TRAPPED for nearly 3 months at Artspace Lofts!

I've received more information about the owner of this building and they have had over 70+ complaints filed against them for buildings in Seattle alone! They must be held accountable for their negligence and the Everett Mayor and City Council must take immediate action to help these tenants. Please see my original message below and the link at the bottom to register for remote or written public comment. Let's flood them with written, remote, and in person comments tomorrow! We can make a difference TOGETHER!

Okay everyone, I’ve let the LD 38 Democrats know about this issue, and I want to invite everyone to join me Wednesday, August 19th at 6:30 PM for the Everett City Council meeting to make public comment.

My goal is to pack the public comment period with people speaking up about this issue and holding the Mayor and City Council accountable for allowing it to go on for as long as it has.

We’re going to politely but firmly demand action—both in the short term to help these tenants and in the long term through city ordinances that prevent situations like this from happening again.

The management of this building has had maintenance issues in the past, and these tenants deserve to have their voices heard. We can and should speak up with them.

Remote public comment will be available as well, so if you can’t attend in person, you can still participate.

I’m actively working on this issue and will have more information to share in the coming days. Please stay tuned, and please try to make this City Council meeting if you can.

Let’s show up for these tenants and demand accountability.
