Looking for the phone person who use to sit outside DSHS In Everett. Anyone know if he still works out there? The few times I've gone I hadn't seen him.

Can anybody hear what the warning signal/ announcement is coming from the base?

I just wanted to thank the volunteers who are still closing the city park gates when the city stopped doing it. The parks that don't have people closing them have become a mess, but the ones still closing are good. Thank you to those citizens closing the parks. We appreciate you trying to keep our neighborhoods safe and clean. Stay warm!

Going on walks I've been seeing more and more of these black bags tied up to tree branches. These are trees in or by people's front yards.

Tell me there's a logical good deed in doing this I wasn't aware of before I go apeshit.

Me and the wife are transferring back to Washington (Everett). We previously were there back in 2010-2013 in oak harbor. When we were stationed there in the past we never spent much if any in Everett. Having two kid are there any areas outside of Everett people would suggest? It’s crazy to see how expensive it has become in that area. We make decent money but just looking at 4500 dollar a month payments is crazy.

Thanks

My husband and I are making the move up to Everett, WA from Lubbock, TX this summer. My husband just accepted the position last week, and we have been trying to get our ducks in a row to prepare for this cross country move. We’d really like to get a rental house, if possible (we’ve always lived in apartments), but we could really use some help with this process being so far away. Do yall have any suggestions for realtors that help with finding rental houses? I’ve tried looking myself, and have already had an ugly conversation with a realtor trying to get us to buy.

I would like to request the hive mind’s suggestions. There is an event that will happen in May for some Everett High School students. This event will have probably between 130-250 guests. We have already looked at the Delta Hotel and they have quoted us in the 9k range for the room, set up, take down, use of tables, linens, silverware, and electronics, plus catering. While that is the best price we have gotten it still seems like a LOT for one night. We have a photographer ($0- someone donating their time) We have a DJ, but not set in stone on that one. ($925- anyone know someone that wants to donate their time for advertising during the event?) Has to be in the city of Everett or vicinity (these are high schoolers and some will need a ride). Thanks in advance for thoughtful suggestions!

Does anyone know if they caught the suspect or he be still running around?

Is around 5-6k a month livable for the everett/marysville area? Thanks

Hi! I am looking for a restaurant or pub in the greater Everett area that has room rentals for birthday parties. I am wanting to throw a surprise party for a friend at the beginning of February but can’t think of any places that have a semi-secluded space. I am also looking at community center type locations but thought I would ask the geniuses of Reddit!

Does anyone know of a teriyaki restaurant that does gf teriyaki in Everett or anywhere in Snohomish County? Love teriyaki and so frustrated that I can't find anywhere that does gf. All that has to be done is to use gf soy sauce. It's not that hard! I've even thought of asking if I provide the gf soy sauce if they would be willing to make it for me. Sounds extreme, I know, but just really craving it.

My buddy and i were looking out on i5 off of summit ave and saw abt 8 police cars run north. Any ideas? Police scanner is not picking up anything major

EVERETT, JAN. 6: The Greater Everett Chamber of Commerce has hit the ground running as they prepare for a future focused solely on the needs of businesses in the Everett area.

“For the first time in over 13 years, Everett will have a dedicated organization to foster business growth, advocate for pro-business policies, and elevate the region as a hub for innovation and economic opportunity,” an Everett Chamber flier said.

Everett Chamber CEO Wendy Poischbeg said the desire to bring back the Chamber stemmed from a need for programs and resources solely for businesses in the greater Everett area.

Jim Burnett, Real Estate Broker and long-time Everett resident joined the Mill Creek chamber last year because “Everett didn’t have a chamber”.

“Chambers are much needed for any city, especially the size of Everett. It just helps bring the community together. There are businesses that we don’t know exist and you learn about them as you network at Chamber meetings,” Burnett said.

Now, the Chamber plans to officially launch next week under the leadership of Poischbeg, who worked with the Economic Alliance of Snohomish County (EASC) as interim President and CEO.

In August Everett city council voted to allocate $600,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act to revive the Everett Chamber. The first Everett Chamber was established in 1892, and in 2011 merged with EASC.

The funds will be dispersed over three years until the Chamber is self-sufficient through membership fees and other revenue sources.

Poischbeg said that although funded by the city momentarily, they are separated from the government agency.

“I think it is important to note that this is a business organization. Even though the city provided some feed funding, we are separated from the city. And we are grateful for the city’s support, but we are also a business organization,” Poischbeg said.

Between the Downtown Everett Association (DEA) and the EASC, the Everett Chamber plans to be different in a few ways.

“The Downtown Everett Association is more business improvement and they have a prescribed area downtown… and Economic Alliance they are largely business attraction. We are much more about business retention and represent all of Greater Everett,” Poischbeg said.

We have a 2014 hyundai elantra in need of it's 60k mile service, but would like to avoid the dealer. Who do you recommend?

Okay. It is 30 minutes after midnight. It sounds like we're in an artillery range here in the Eastmont neighborhood. This is genuinely absurd. Way worse than 4th of July. I wish people would just take this stuff into the more rural parts of the county. Just no respect for people at all.

Specifically looking for someone who is certified with one of the programs listed in the screenshot and can assess my home in Everett. Any recommendations you can offer are much appreciated!

I have a 50gal electric heater that's reached EOL, and Beacon plumbing quoted me $4k to replace it. That seems really steep since I can order one from HD and have it delivered for $1k, so where is the other $3k coming from?

Also thinking about going tankless (not heat pump) but wondering what people's experience has been with that up here since their efficiency is affected by inlet water temperature.
