MARYSVILLE – It’s been almost six months since the shooting at Marysville-Pilchuck High School, but for senior Carly McCartney it still is fresh in her mind.

To honor the victims and all of the people who influence our lives McCartney puts them in her artwork.

MicroGreen closure stuns workersBY KIRK [email protected]

ARLINGTON — Justin Brackett found out he no longer had a job when he woke up and checked Facebook on his phone.

Brackett was one of more than 160 employees of MicroGreen Polymers in

Arlington whose employ-ment ended when the com-pany closed suddenly April 3.

“I didn’t make much money, but I believed in what I was doing,” said Brackett, a former grave-yard shift lead. He joined coworkers at an April 15

WorkSource meeting. “We were treated with respect, not belittled. Whoever you were, your voice was heard. With the work we were doing, for recycling and the environment, it was like jumping into the future. It could have been the start of something huge.”

MicroGreen began recycling plastic prod-ucts in Arlington in 2002. The company raised more than $40 million from outside investors includ-ing the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians and Waste Management. Its “InCycle” recyclable cof-

fee cups were used on air-lines including Alaska Air, United and Virgin America. MicroGreen executives were so confident of future expansion that they asked Gov. Jay Inslee to widen Highway 531 in January.

families.But she since has put

together a portfolio of more works with “influences” in them.

It’s for “every person we’ve ever come in contact with,” Carly said. Some “we’re not even aware of their impact. Each figure is another per-spective.”

The tragedy has affected her life in another way, too. After considering careers as a veterinarian, dog trainer, doctor and criminologist, she now wants to get into art therapy.

“I’ve seen what art can do. It’s powerful,” she said. “It can help people in certain circumstances.”

Carly, 17, said when stu-dents came back after the shooting, “We were numb, not engaged at all.”

Therapy dogs were all over campus, providing

comfort to students. They decided on a project where students would draw the dogs.

“Art helps people express themselves,” Carly said.

Carly has enjoyed art as far back as she can remem-ber, age 3 or 4. “It’s some-thing I always remember doing,” she said.

While artistic talent runs somewhat in the family, Carly didn’t want to be a “starving artist” so she didn’t think of it seriously as a career until middle school. She now plans to major in Fine Arts in college, either at Cornish or Western or in Chicago where she has received $63,000 in scholar-ships. “But it’s still expensive and far away,” she said.

Carly’s style is “sur-real” using mixed medium including charcoal, graph-ite, markers, pen and ink, colored pencils and acrylic paints.

Her Advanced Placement art teacher the past three years, Karen Epperson, said Carly has natural talent, but she also is a hard worker, accepting advice to make her work better.

I’m impressed “with the sophistication of her work. There’s so much thought and deep meaning,” Epperson said.

When she first met Carly as a freshman, she had raw talent but was unsure, her teacher said.

“There was so much going on, it was busy and confusing,” Epperson said

of Carly’s work, adding it’s now more focused.

Along with that, Epperson has tried to help her gain confidence.

“Her ideas, I don’t want to stifle those,” Epperson said, and “by putting her work out there and winning awards.”

Carly won seven honors at the recent Scholastic Art Awards. “Our Choice” won a Gold Key, along with two other works. She also won two Silver Keys and two Honorable Mentions.

Carly said she does most of her artwork at home, in her studio, which doubles as her bedroom. She likes working freestyle, but much of her artwork is compli-cated, so she uses a draft. She finds those limiting; she can’t be as expressive. She said her artwork feels tighter.

Certainly the shoot-ing could be part of it. She still is intense when talking about it. She could look to her own artwork for inspi-ration.

“We are united because it is our pathway of choice” at M-P, her artwork says.

She added: We need to “move on and support each other. Learn from the trage-dy. Good things can happen in spite of this. Live for each other. All lives are valuable.”

A deep thinker, Carly said everyone continually evolves.

“Everyone is like a can-vas,” she said. “But I don’t think it’s ever really com-pleted.”

The Arlington Times / The Marysville Globe2 April 18, 2015

Company executives were talking about expan-sion in January when Gov. Jay Inslee toured the facil-ity in Jensen Business Park near Highway 9.

Others echoed not only Brackett’s affection for his coworkers and admiration for their mission, but also their dismay and disbelief with how suddenly it all ended.

Tony La Salata was a director of engineering for

MicroGreen by the time his five years with the company ended. Not only did he see a business that was surviving, but he cited several signs that it was thriving.

“We were installing new equipment until the day we were all let go,” La Salata said. “On Wednesday, everything seemed to be on the up-and-up, but by Friday, it wasn’t. We weren’t just meeting our production numbers, but seeing upticks in them.”

Although La Salata took care to describe MicroGreen

as “a great company with good people and wonderful business ethics,” he admit-ted that their lack of com-munication in the wake of their shutdown had sown confusion.

“I don’t think there was any ill will on their part, but they’re just not talking to us,” La Salata said. “We have no idea what their plans are for the technology that was left after we shut the switch-es off. I’ve got vendors call-ing me with questions, and we’re clueless.”

La Salata speculated that

the company likely closed due to “investor fatigue.”

Printer operator Vern Nickol recalled MicroGreen as a friendly, well-organized work environment that treated its people generous-ly, while construction work-er Adrian Murphy observed that their former employ-er seemed to be working toward already established, tangible goals.

“One of our last weeks there, we ran the most that we’d ever run,” production shift Brian Garner said. “We were a close-knit crew,

working as hard as we could and doing our best, so it’s a shame they closed the doors on us.”

While production assis-tant Shanda Miller acknowl-edged that she and her hus-band would no longer be able to buy a much-needed replacement car, she faced this prospect with the same stoicism as her coworkers.

“You just adjust the best that you can, and reassess where you’re at,” Garner said. “It’s all about setting yourself up with the next plan of action to take care of

your family.”Like Brackett, Miller

and La Salata believe that MicroGreen anticipated a growing need.

“Everybody’s trying to go green, and we thought we could start small but even-tually go global in doing that,” said Miller, who started an invitation-only Facebook group for former MicroGreen employees to stay in touch.

Representatives of MicroGreen have not responded to contact attempts.

MARYSVILLE – It’s one of the age-old questions that can divide a society, like evolution vs. creation or Democrats vs. Republicans?

Which is better - Mac or Windows? The Marysville School District will make that decision May 5.

District technology direc-tor Scott Beebe said Macs are less prone to failure, and Windows is more prone to a virus. While Windows leads, Mac is gaining in the marketplace. And if it doesn’t work out, “We can put Windows on Macs, but not the other way around,” Beebe said.

There are 6,000 comput-ers in the district, but only about 4,000 are functional. So, no matter which is cho-sen, “We will have most of all or the other, but never all the same,” Beebe said, add-ing computers will be leased to spread out the cost.

School board member Chris Nation said he wants the best value, and the one that is user friendly.

Neither is more user friendly because no mat-ter which is chosen, it will be new for all because the computers will be purchased with the newest format.

“It doesn’t matter what we pick, someone will be upset,” Beebe said.

Also at the district’s April 13 work session, school leaders talked about the new Marysville-Pilchuck High School cafeteria.

Finance director Jim Baker said $5 million for the cafeteria passed both state houses of the legis-

lature. “We were sweating both designations,” he said. Baker said the district plans to start building the new facility in October.

Baker also went over the budget. Nation wondered if the numbers looked bad because the district has hired experts to help after the shooting at M-P. Baker said most of those costs have been paid for by fed-eral grants.

Baker did say enroll-ment has been down about 1 percent all year, and that has meant less state fund-ing. Food Service is down $290,000. Baker said that is mostly because of labor costs and the higher cost of serving “nutritional meals. We can’t do pizza and ham-burger every day,” he said. That has led to fewer stu-dents buying lunch, for which the district charges $1.92, the most it can.

Meanwhile, Jack Monpas-Huber, director of assess-

ment and student infor-mation, continued his dis-cussion from the previous session on the North Star Indicators. He talked about the high school reading scores, which show ability ranging from middle school to college level. “Kids are spread out all over the place,” he said, adding less than a third are where they should be. Fourth-graders had the best scores, with 44 percent being where they are sup-posed to be. Monpas-Huber said scores for the district actually were better in math.

While this scoring sys-tem is new, Nation said the district shouldn’t just rely on these scores. Council Member Pete Lundberg agreed, saying these scores won’t mean much until there is something to com-pare it to, in three or four years.

Also, Principal Shawn Stevenson of Marysville Getchell’s Academy

of Construction and Engineering talked of how intervention, intentional planning, best practices, learning targets and using consistent, similar language is helping at his school. The goal is to give students a similar experience, say in science, no matter who the teacher is, he said.

His staff also talked about Advancement Via Individual Determination, or AVID, which is being taught at the school for its third year. Stevenson said it has changed the attitude of many students, thanks to college visits and other tools. He said 52 students are going to graduate on time, and five plan to go to college. Just a few years ago that number was zero. The idea that you “are going to fail has changed,” he said.

One activity that has brought the students closer together is an after-school intramural program once

a month. Not for athletes, the activity is not competi-tive. “The students embrace each other,” Stevenson said. About 25 percent of the students and 80 percent of staff participate. The stu-dents love interacting with the teachers in a fun way. “We hear about it for weeks,” Stevenson said.

In other news:•Results of a state audit

were explained. The only issue had to do with record-keeping with Associated Student Body fund-raisers. About $1,500 was unac-counted for, but has since been found at MG. The district was told that issue is very common in high schools when students are dealing with cash. A prob-lem dealing with special education funding last year also has been resolved, audi-

tors said.•Totem Middle School

is having a fund-raiser for leukemia and lymphoma research. Students donate to see which teacher will wear a hot dog costume. Teachers also are giving out super-hero cards to students who show leadership traits, with 10 kids at each grade level winning prizes.

•Marysville Middle School had a free throw shooting competition to raise funds for uniforms. The girls brought in $5,000 and the boys $2,100. The seventh-grade basketball team went undefeated.

•Cedarcrest Middle School raised about $4,270 for leukemia and lympho-ma research. Also, all of the students went on field trips to different colleges to get them interested in going.

MARYSVILLE – The smell of fresh paint at the Ken Baxter Community-Senior Center is a stark con-trast to when it closed about five months ago because of a sewer backup.

When it reopens in the next week or so, it will look, and smell, like an almost brand-new building.

It features new paint, inside and out. The floors, which were damaged when the 1949 sewer line broke, are completely redone, mostly with tile but with rug in the Comfort Room, a quiet zone for playing cards and lounging. A donation from the Stillaguamish Tribe paid for a new kitchen.

The bathrooms, of course, were redone. One wall had to be replaced because of structural damage.

Parks director Jim Ballew said April 14 that the color scheme was changed so it’s “more warming. It was kind of cold.”

Some of the building was re-insulated, and new, ener-gy-efficient lighting was added.

“It’s a dramatic change,” Ballew said.

He said it had been about 10 years since the flooring had been changed anyway.

It’s a high-use facility, with all types of classes, includ-ing zumba and yoga, tak-ing place in the Garden and Fireside rooms.

“It was a perfect storm,” Ballew said. “We had an event, and the timing made sense.”

Visitors will also see a dramatic change on the out-side, with a concrete plaza that was poured April 15. That area will help with spe-cial events. A Community Development Block Grant also will help pay for four benches next to the building and five more in Comeford Park. Outside water and power also will be available now.

Ballew said the entire project took about two

months longer than expect-ed. “We kept finding little things,” he said.

But people will enjoy the

end result, he added. After the center closed, seniors were moved to the police annex at 136th. When the

new Rotary Ranch opened, they started going there.

“The seniors are anxious to get back here,” he said.

There’s a good chance marijuana will be in front of voters again this fall. This time, though, the decision will be whether to keep the industry out, not whether to let it in.

A bill passed by the state House on April 10 would erase bans on marijuana businesses that have been locally enacted by elected officials in Marysville, Snohomish, Mill Creek and 56 other cities, plus a handful of counties.

But the bill would allow voters a chance to impose a prohibition on marijuana growers, processors or retailers through passage of a local ballot measure — even in a city or county where the budding weed industry is blossoming.

House Bill 2136, a 54-page rewrite of the rules and taxation of recreational marijuana commerce, passed on a strong bipartisan vote of 67-28. It is now in the Senate for consideration.

The sliver of the bill dealing with preemption and public votes tries to cope with a sizable rebellion of communities after approval of Initiative 502 in 2012.

Fifty-nine of the state’s 281 cities bar entrepreneurs from setting up shop, according to the Municipal Research and Services Center of Washington, a nonprofit that tracks policies and practices of local gov-ernments.

Four counties — Pierce, Yakima, Walla Walla and Clark — also ban marijuana businesses in unincorpo-rated areas.

And another 50-plus cities and counties, including Snohomish County, have moratoriums limiting the industry in some fashion.

State lawmakers began the 2015 legislative session determined to address the rejection of marijuana businesses. Many lawmakers did not support Initiative 502 but now want to ensure that those getting into the business are not prevented from

doing so.Plus, this is a

potential money-maker for the state. Because of that, there’s gen-eral agreement in the House and Senate that the state should share

a small piece of marijuana tax rev-enue with cities and counties — but only if they allow approved marijua-na businesses in their jurisdictions.

They hope such a financial incentive will encourage communi-ties to drop their bans. But House members didn’t feel that’s enough to change behavior, so in HB 2136 they wipe out the bans and mora-toriums and offer two paths to re-impose them via the ballot.

Under one scenario, a voter can submit a petition signed by at least 30 percent of the registered voters of a community to the elected lead-ers of that city or county. The other is for members of a city council or county council to put it on the bal-lot.

A simple majority is required to pass it. And a voter-approved ban cannot be altered or repealed for

two years under the House bill.These elements of preemption

and voting face an uncertain future in the Senate. Senators left them out of a similar bill they considered ear-lier in the session.

Should they emerge, it could cre-ate some interesting ballot dynam-ics.

One might expect leaders of cit-ies with bans, such as Marysville, Snohomish and Mill Creek, to try to preserve them. That could force this year’s candidates for city and county offices, including county executive, to choose sides, knowing their deci-sion could enrage enough voters to hurt them in an election.

On Monday, the Legislature added another twist. A bill passed by the Senate and heading to the governor brings the medical mari-juana industry under the regulatory structure of the recreational market.

Soon, hundreds of dispensaries will have to abide the rules of the province where they operate. If it’s a city whose leaders and voters want to impose a ban via the ballot, those dispensing marijuana might need to respond with a campaign or be prepared to relocate.

Then there are situations where residents frustrated by the presence of dispensaries in their neighbor-hood, as in the Clearview area of Snohomish County, might try their hand at limiting or outlawing dis-pensaries via a ballot measure.

So there’s great potential for not one big battle over marijuana in Washington this fall but many small ones in communities throughout the state.

Olympia gets off pot in lieu of you

Please help me under-stand. I do not get why so many people don’t like Daylight-Saving Time. About 85 percent in Marysville and 69 percent in Arlington say they don’t, according to a survey we ran in The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times the past two weeks. Also, two of our state leaders introduced bills this session to try to get rid of it.

I am a member of the big minority when it comes to this issue. I love DST.

My favorite thing about it is the summer, when it stays somewhat light until after 9 p.m. I love being able to get off work and play some golf. It helps me be active with so much light time.

I also like in the summer how it does not get really light until 4:30 or so in the morning. Staying up later means I want to sleep later without the sun waking me up at 3 a.m.

I actually wish it was DST year-round, instead of going back to standard time. In the winter, I see no advantage to it getting dark at 4:30 p.m. instead of 5:30. In fact, I would rather at least be able to drive home while it is light for better safety. In winter mornings, it doesn’t matter if it’s dark at 7:30 or 8:30 to me, it’s still dark when I want it to be light. To enhance that argument, if we did not have DST, it would get light at 3 a.m. and dark at 7:03 p.m. on the longest day of the year, June 19. On the other side of it, if we did have DST, on the

shortest day of the year, Dec. 19, sure the sun wouldn’t rise until 8:46 a.m., but at least it would be light until 5:08 p.m.

I had to look online to see what the reasons are for get-ting rid of DST. The main points were that it is a “has-

sle,” and it causes “con-fusion.”

Are we really that lazy and stupid? I don’t think so. We are better than

that. I’ve been doing it all my life, and the only problem it has ever caused me was being late to church twice. I really need help in under-standing this issue. Please email me at [email protected].

Saving daylight:What’s not to like?

Support saving salmon habitat

Imagine a river brim-ming with abundant wild salmon stocks.

Imagine healthy, clean streams for our children to explore and play in.

Imagine robust riparian forests full of fecundity. 

Twenty-five  years ago a  group of volunteers  set out to make such a vision a reality. The found-ers of  Sound Salmon Solutions rallied  around a mission  that engages in community-based salmon recovery as part of a larger response to Endangered Species Act listings of local chinook and coho salmon stocks.

In addition to habi-tat-restoration projects, educating the public on wetland ecology and the importance of steward-ship were also deemed key to ensuring the future of

salmon in watersheds. With the help of hun-

dreds of volunteers and students of all ages, our organization has made progress toward realizing the founders’ vision.

Some of the accom-plishments include: nearly a million fish released in local waters, numerous fish-passage projects that opened miles of habitat, more than 40 miles of river restored, more than 175 acres planted with more than 150,000 native trees and shrubs, thousands of carcasses distributed, and more than 15,000 students have learned about the salmon life-cycle through hands-on lessons and field trips that include service projects.

Please take a few min-utes to visit our website (www.soundsalmonso-lutions.org) to complete our survey.

To commemorate our

25th anniversary you can participate in our “Give 5 in 2015” campaign by making a $5 donation, vol-unteering five hours one Saturday or sharing with five friends who we are and what we do.

The success of our next 25 years requires a new generation of supporters, volunteers and students.

Help homelessI just want to say that

was a great article telling the parents about their children’s safety (April 12, 2015, Page 1, “There baaack.”).

My big question is why isn’t there something done about this?

There are a lot of home-less people, including chil-dren, and why isn’t there a place where they can turn to like a homeless shelter?

I’m just wondering if this paper could spread the word of where there is and possible solutions instead of making the people who are dealing with this hard-ship have no where to turn or this is all they got.

It’s a big concern for me because I know someone in that area who gets noth-ing from that community and is starving without food or shelter.

Our community does nothing to help them get back to a life that they once had and lost because of hardship.

Then the first thing I see in the paper is this awful situation but no offerings of help.

More positive and less negative, and this world would be a better place. Offer help not punish-ment.

MARYSVILLE - Marysville School District seniors dedicated to making a difference in their com-munity have an opportunity to receive a scholarship of up to $2,000 toward a career in health and human servic-es and other related fields.

The Caring for Your Community Scholarship, organized by the MP Memorial Foundation, will provide one or two student applicants with resources to pursue higher education that makes a difference in people’s lives and builds stronger communities.

“From counseling and social work, to policy devel-opment and non-profit management, our goal is to empower students to use their education to make meaningful change in indi-vidual lives and communi-ties,” foundation president Danna Watson-Gibson said.

ARLINGTON – Two Marysville teens wanted in connection with a hit-and-run crash with an Arlington police sergeant turned themselves in April 15.

The suspects, 19-year-old Rodrigo Loyola-Vasquez of Marysville and 18-year-old Martin A. Castro-Ponce, also of Marysville, turned themselves in to Marysville police and were turned over to Arlington police for questioning.

Police say the suspects admitted their involvement and apologized.

They were booked into Marysville Municipal Jail.

The white 2004 Buick LeSabre that hit the police vehicle was found abandoned in a nearby parking lot, a city news release says.

The owner of the vehicle stated that Loyola-Vasquez and Castro-Ponce had per-mission to use the vehicle.

Arlington police learned that Loyola-Vasquez and Castro-Ponce allegedly had been heard discussing their involvement with the collision.

The sergeant, who was driving a Chevrolet Tahoe, was transported to Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington by the Arlington Fire Department for evaluation and treatment.

He was released shortly after 1 a.m. on April 11.

The crash occurred April 10 at about 10:45 p.m. when the LeSabre allegedly failed to stop for a red light at the intersection of 172nd St. NE and Smokey Point Boulevard, colliding with the police vehicle.

The driver of the Buick left the scene.Because the incident involves Arlington

police, the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office is handling the investigation.

School vandalsARLINGTON – At least

two people vandalized Arlington High School April 16. At about 1:45 a.m., Arlington police respond-ed to an alarm at the high school. Police witnessed at least two people inside the fenced and gated lot.

The pair attempted to flee in their vehicle but were contained inside the locked gates. The two then aban-doned the vehicle and fled on foot to the east of the school. A K-9 team from the Monroe Police Department helped in the search but the pair escaped.

Damage was limited to one office where a window was shattered and a com-puter monitor was found on the floor, along with a rail-ing in the parking lot.

Adds to ExpoMARYSVILLE – The

Marysville School District has added three partners for the Opportunity Expo this year: Everett Community College, Washington State University and the Everett University Center.

The new partners, along with the school district, Marysville Rotary, Rotary Education Foundation and The Tulalip Tribes, will provide students with even more options to con-sider for their futures. The Expo will be held at EvCC’s campus and will include tours of its new Advanced Manufacturing Training & Education Center, a visit to the home of EvCC’s Health Sciences programs and campus tours.

On April 28, all high school juniors in Marysville and Tulalip will be bused to the campus to attend one of two sessions. More than 100 college, career, technical and trade vendors plus busi-ness, community service and military representatives will be present to network with students to help them prepare for their futures.

Cleaning M-PMARYSVILLE –

Hundreds of volunteers will spend April 25, beautify-ing the Marysville-Pilchuck High School campus.

Joining employees from Comcast’s Lynnwood and Everett Call Centers, vol-unteers will be providing a facelift to the campus through indoor and out-door projects, including painting, landscaping and general cleaning.

Also, the Comcast Foundation will provide a

grant to the school. For details or to sign up

to volunteer, visit: www.comcastinthecommunity.com.

Know your schoolARLINGTON -

Arlington Public Schools will host a Know Your Schools event for the com-munity Thursday, April 23, from 8:30 to 11 a.m.

The event will begin with a complimentary break-fast with Superintendent Kristine McDuffy and other members of the district’s leadership team in the third floor Lincoln Room at the district office.

Attendees will hear about how the district is keeping its eyes on educational pri-orities in the face of change. Following the informational session, there will be a tour of a few schools to see stu-dent achievement.

To make a reservation, contact Public Information Officer Andrea Conley at 618-6217 or by email [email protected].

Show a successMARYSVILLE – More

than 65 vendors par-ticipated in Marysville’s annual Spring Craft Show last weekend at a new site, Totem Middle School.

Vendors sold garden benches, soap, wreaths, jew-elry, both commercial and hand-crafted items, cus-tom-wood signs and more.

MARYSVILLE – Maybe they should call it New Universe.

“We call it New World, but it’s really bigger than that,” SNOPAC 9-1-1 execu-tive director Kurt Mills told the Marysville City Council April 13.

Mills was talking about the new computer dis-patch system in Snohomish County that was supposed to go online in 2012. The plan now is to go live June 9.

“We’re hoping for the best and planning for the worst,” Mills said, adding that get-ting 50 agencies to talk the same computer language has been a challenge. “It’s not if we’re going to have problems. We’re going to have problems.”

Right now, SNOPAC covers most of the county with 38 agencies. But when New World starts up, dis-patch centers in Bothell and SnoCom, which covers the southwest county, also will be on board. The big advan-tage in service is that it will be seamless.

“The concept of borders will go away,” Mills said, adding with the integrated system all agencies will be able to “see where the units are.”

He also said suspects will no longer be able to play the “Name Game,” as pho-tos will come up on licenses

so police can “see who the person is.”

Another advantage is that as new technology evolves, the entire county will get the updates.

Also at the council meet-ing:

•About $3.226 million was allocated for widening State Avenue from 116th to 136th. About $2.5 million of that is a state grant.

•The city will work with Allen Creek Community Church this summer on having a Farmer’s Market at 1035 State Ave. on Saturdays through Oct. 31.

•Mayor Jon Nehring read a proclamation declar-ing Yueqing City, China, a Friendship City. A delega-tion from that city will be in Marysville later this month.

•Nehring and parks director Jim Ballew said the Clean Sweep at Mother Nature’s Window Park April 11 was a success. Ballew said 26 volunteers and 14 city employees broke up three homeless encamp-

ments there and confiscated about 200 drug needles. The mayor said the park is “a real asset. It feels like you’re in the wilderness.” Pubic Works Director Kevin Nielsen said the city is look-ing cleaner, and it will look even better soon as seasonal hires will start work, pick up trash and landscape areas.

•The city obtained some land from the state Department of Transportation. Some of it was free because it will be used for transportation uses in the future, such as the widening of Sunnyside Boulevard. The other DOT land the city plans to buy for

about $23,000. It is 6.1 acres near Jennings Memorial Park that will be used as open space and wetlands.

•About $1.3 million was allocated for the Pavement Preservation Program.

•Marysville is a Tree City for the fifth-straight year.

•Marysville won a well-city award, leading to sav-ings in health care for employees.

•The city exchanged some property with the Tulalip Tribes.

•Worth Norton was hon-ored for 10 years of service.

•Joshua Estes was named to the Civil Service Commission.

LEGAL NOTICES

TULALIP — Jesica Stickles knows the good work that her volunteers are doing through the feedback they get.

Stickles, the new president and CEO of the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce, recently honored the volunteers who staff the Visitor Information Center.

“I’m always hearing laughter up front from the volunteers, as they speak with our visitors,” Stickles said at the Tulalip Resort Casino April 10. “If I was a visitor, I’d certainly remember our center as a friendly place whose people gave me good advice.”

She reported that the center’s sign-in sheet included plenty of comments that praised the volunteers for their cheerful personalities and helpful ser-vices.

“Our volunteers are an invaluable treasure, beyond what we can mea-sure,” Stickles said.

Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring deemed the volunteer appreciation luncheon one of his favorite annual events.

“You folks are often the first faces that people see when they come here,” Nehring said. “They talk to you to find out whether they should move their homes or businesses here.”

Nehring credited the volunteers with maintaining the “small town feel” of both Marysville and Tulalip, even as Marysville’s population has grown to 63,000.

“They don’t get that level of person-

alized service in larger cities,” Nehring said. “You maintain the reputations of the chamber and the community, who couldn’t do it without you.”

Among those who received Presidential Volunteer Service Awards at the Bronze level, for 100-199 hours of service this past year, were:

• James Eubanks, Barry Hammer, Sherri Hicks and Cathy Pama, volun-teers since 2014.

• Suzanne Winkler, a volunteer since 2013.

• Cindy Guy, a volunteer since 2012.• Ingrid and Peter Schneider, volun-

teers since 2009.• Donna Leifer, a volunteer since

2008.• Tim King, a volunteer since 2003.“Treasured Volunteers” included

Tom Davis, Jeri DuBeau, Ken Rankin and Carrie Wells.

“These volunteers gave the most precious thing in their lives; their time,” past chair John Bell said.

ARLINGTON — The city is set to partner with WSDOT to receive federal grant funds for pavement preservation on Smokey Point Boulevard, and the Haller Parking Lot Project has already gone up for bid.

City engineer Eric Scott explained that the city would be eligible for $156,029 pavement grant funds once the City Council authorizes the WSDOT Local Programs Engineer to serve as the

certified agency. It would over-see the expenditures and work performed on a federally funded transportation project.

The council is set to make its decision April 20.

Scott also reported that, out of six bidders, E&D Excavating of Arlington submitted the lowest bid of $243,391.27, with $161,860.21 going toward the parking lot, $59,845.00 for the storm main and $2,000 toward trench safety, with an additional 8.8 percent sales tax of $19,686.06.

The construction estimate for the parking lot was $170,000, with an estimate of an addi-tional $55,000 for water-quality improvements, bringing the total construction estimate to $225,000.

“We did a background check to ensure they were a responsible bidder, but E&D has done con-tract work with the city before,” Scott said. “Their efficiency to date was a factor in our decision.”

City administrator Paul Elis added: “If it was anyone else, we’d be a bit more concerned.”

The 38-space parking lot will serve Centennial Trail, Haller Park, the Stillaguamish Community Room and the pub-lic. The lot will include an elec-tric vehicle-charging station, two handicapped-parking stalls, trees for shade and two picnic shelters.

Capital improvement was added to this project due to its loca-tion, to cover drainage improve-ments to protect the Haller Well Field. It was likewise identified as a sanitary concern for the well that stormwater flows down West

Avenue and infiltrates at the Haller Well Field. This project will add a new storm drain system to Cox Avenue that will collect and con-vey runoff from the West Avenue drainage ditch to the stormwater wetland.

Scott noted these improve-ments have been included with the parking lot package, to achieve an economy of scale for construc-tion, and thus reduce the overall costs to the city.

The council is slated to vote on this issue as well April 20.

ARLINGTON — Since the City Council last updat-ed the city’s fee schedule in 2012, communications director Kristin Banfield presented the council with a possible update April 13.

Although the fees cover all departments in the city and address items not included in the Arlington Municipal Code, Banfield noted that three areas have been touched.

1. Staff are seconding the Arlington Cemetery Advisory Board’s recom-mendation of revised fees for the cemetery, which caught council member Debora Nelson’s attention.

“Why are these fees lower?” Nelson asked.

Cemetery Board Staff Accountant Kris Wallace asserted the need for Arlington’s cemetery to

become more competitive with those of similar munic-ipalities, and assured Nelson the fees would still cover the cemetery’s expenses.

2. Staff are also propos-ing a change to the fee for late renewal of business licenses, in accordance with the change to Arlington Municipal Code adopted in January.

3. Police have likewise requested fees for finger-printing, lamination of con-cealed pistol licenses and the service of anti-harass-ment orders.

“If we’re out of line with other jurisdictions, we’re going to know about it,” said Banfield, who reported that staff routinely look at such fees throughout Snohomish County. She added that the fees reflect the police’s most recent survey of its patrol and response activity within the city.

Marysville Getchell’s Collin Montez throws a pitch to Arlington.

BY BRANDON [email protected]

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Getchell base-ball team grabbed its first league win of the season against Arlington 7-6 April 15. MG’s Collin Mahoney hit two doubles and an RBI and teammate Collin Montez added two RBIs for MG now 1-5 in the league.

After losing to Arlington in the first game of the series, it was a great game to “get back on track from spring break,” coach Gerry Klep said.

“We’re back where we should be.” The Chargers broke to an early lead, with

the Eagles trailing 5-2 enter-ing the fifth inning.

But Arlington made a comeback two runs. MG

responded with two of its own. MG struggled as the Eagles scored two more runs in the sixth, Klep said,

but the Chargers’ defense held Arlington to come up with the win.

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood boys soccer team lost to Archbishop Murphy 6-0 April 15. Lakewood is 0-9.

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood baseball team lost its second game to Archbishop Murphy 9-1 April 15. Lakewood’s record is now 9-4.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck base-ball team fell to Oak Harbor 11-3 April 15. M-P’s record is now 8-3.

OAK HARBOR — The

Marysville Getchell girls golf team fell to Oak Harbor 561-535 April 15.

EDMONDS — The Marysville Getchell softball team improved to 2-6 with a 7-5 win over Edmonds-Woodway April 15, with a double hit by Ashlyn Sievers and a triple by Kymber Devlin.

LYNNWOOD — The Arlington softball team fell a run short to Lynnwood 2-1 April 15. Arlington’s overall record is 3-5.

SHORELINE — The Marysville-Pilchuck softball team fell to Shorewood 4-3 April 15. M-P’s record is now 5-3.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck girls tennis team lost to Everett April 15. Singles winners were Claire Esser 5-7, 6-1, 6-2; and Megan Gross 6-3, 6-2.

OAK HARBOR — The Arlington girls tennis team lost to Oak Harbor 4-3 April 15. Arlington’s singles win-ner was Brittany DeNike 7-5, injured; Doubles vic-tors were: Gig Moss and Demi Catwright 6-0, 6-1; and Lily Bynum and Evie Rolston 6-3, 6-3.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington girls golf team defeated Marysville-Pilchuck 325-268 at Gleneagle Golf Course April 14. Arlington’s Emmi Modahl led with a 46 over nine holes.

SHORELINE — The Marysville Getchell boys soccer team was blanked by Shorecrest 3-0 April 14. MG’s record is 1-9.

STANWOOD — Ernest Addock, Sebastian Navarro, Zack Troupe and Chris Correa scored goals for Marysville-Pilchuck to blank Stanwood 4-0 April 14.

TULALIP — Marysville’s Shelley O’Brien was still liv-ing up to her team name of “Laughing Out Loud” even after she took a tumble from her scooter near the end of the April 11 Walk MS Snohomish County at the Tulalip Amphitheatre.

“I was on the last stretch of sidewalk when I turned a little wide,” said O’Brien, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2006, and has taken part in Walk MS ever since. “Fortunately, I had friends who helped me get back up, and there was nothing broken. I hard-ly even had any bumps or

bruises.” At age 54, O’Brien has learned to laugh in the face of adversity. When she was 30, she was diagnosed with cancer, and when she was diagnosed with MS, she was told that she’d likely had it for at least 30 years.

“It explained a lot, includ-ing why I was so averse to heat and had such a ten-dency to trip,” O’Brien said. “I don’t have any history of MS in my family, so when my parents told me to stop shuffling my feet as a kid, I thought I had trouble with running because I was tired, or I just wasn’t very good at it.” It wasn’t until a hike in

2000 left her with strange symptoms in her leg that she visited a chiropractor, suspecting that she’d broken her foot or leg without real-izing it. A subsequent visit to a sports doctor suggested MS, but it took a neurolo-gist to confirm it.

“In the Sixties and Seventies, when I was a kid, this issue wasn’t even on anyone’s radar,” she said.

Although O’Brien start-ed doing the Walk MS in Seattle, she prefers the inti-macy of the Tulalip setting. She was disappointed for not raising her usual $3,000 this year, since her team

raised only $2,600.“I didn’t start as early as I

should have,” O’Brien said. “I’ve already got ideas for next year, though. I’ll be getting a tent for our team.”

Laughing Out Loud was one of 68 teams, adding up to 700 people, who generat-ed $106,614.25 toward Walk MS Snohomish County’s $130,000 fundraising goal for May 8.

“The MS Society has been a godsend,” said O’Brien, who credited them with helping cover the costs of expensive MS medication during the two years she was between jobs.

ARLINGTON – Two girls from Arlington will partici-pate in the 60th Snohomish County Dairy Ambassador coronation April 18 at the Holiday Inn in Everett.

Janneylee Ceja is the daughter of Fidel Ceja and Celia Cortez of Arlington, and is a junior at Arlington

High School. Janneylee participated in 4-H, enjoys playing volleyball, and has assisted with milking and other tasks on local dair-ies. She was an honor roll student at Sno Isle TECH, where she completed the dental assisting program, and plans to attend the

Everett Community college dental hygiene program.

Kaitlyn Meissner is the daughter of Tracey Meissner of Arlington. She is a junior at Stanwood High School where she is active in FFA, serving as a chapter offi-cer and participating in events at the district and

state level. She is also active in the Washington Jr. Holstein Association, and has worked as an assistant milk tester. After graduat-ing, Kaitlyn wants to con-

tinue in the dairy industry, perhaps becoming a DHIA milk tester.

One of the outgoing alter-nate Ambassadors is Nicole Buell of Marysville.

Kevin Butler and Joseph Petersen were among the young volunteers from the Marysville LDS Stake who helped with the cleanup of the park.

BY KIRK [email protected]

MARYSVILLE — The city’s annual “Clean Sweep” has traditionally covered a broad swath of parks and neighborhoods, but this year’s event focused on a specific site that city officials hope to open to the public as early as next year.

“Mother Nature’s Window,” a thickly for-ested area that the city acquired during the 2009 Central Marysville Annexation, has not only been a target of graffiti tags, but has also served as the site of homeless encampments, as evidenced by the mounds of refuse that city workers, police and com-munity volunteers found April 11.

City Parks and Recreation Director Jim Ballew, who was joined by Parks Maintenance Manager Mike Robinson, credited code enforcement and previous cleanup efforts with making a dent in van-dalism and littering elsewhere in the city.

Ballew emphasized the importance of creating more convenient access to Mother Nature’s Window, to turn it into a passive nature park, with trails that will be much

easier to navigate than the current narrow footpaths. “This place has been abused, and it really is not safe right now,” Ballew said, before middle-aged and school-aged vol-unteers alike used pitchforks and tongs to load plastic bottles, sheets of cardboard and soaked blankets into rolling trashcans. “We need to reclaim it and change its culture.”

The day’s cleanup is just the first step in the city’s plans for the future park, located just east of Cascade Elementary. Ballew also expects an access road will be installed, to allow police and emergency vehicles to check the area, especially at night. Further improvements will be developed with a design consultant. “When we gained these lands, we saved them from future develop-ment,” Ballew said. “There’s some really spectacular old-growth trees here, and we want to help the community take pride in this forest.” Ballew praised the community for the pride it’s already demonstrated in previous Clean Sweeps, in addition to the number of volunteers who braved the day’s cold and wet weather to pick up garbage in the prospective park.

Free kindergartenARLINGTON –

Arlington Public Schools recently made a decision to provide full-time kinder-garten at each elementary school in 2015-16 at no cost to parents. The state plans to provide it for all students in 2017-18.

The past four years the district has offered tuition-based full-time kinder-garten. Families can still request a reduced schedule when they register their child; however, parents will be responsible for midday transportation. To check on which school a stu-dent should attend, call the Transportation Department at 360-435-3307.

Long commutesMarysville ranks 15th

and Arlington 18th in a sur-vey of the longest commute times in the Puget Sound.

The average com-mute time for people in Marysville is 30.9 minutes, while Arlington is 30.8 minutes. Vashon residents have the longest commutes, at 45 minutes. Most of the worst commutes are south of Seattle, except for Duvall, ranked seventh at 33 min-utes, and Lake Stevens ranked eighth at 32 min-utes. In that same study, it costs $1,019 to insure a car in Marysville, on average, and $940.63 in Arlington. Arlington has more people who commute alone, 82.4 percent to 78.8 percent, and more people who use public transportation, 3.9 percent to 3.2 percent.

BY KIRK [email protected]

ARLINGTON — San Juan Salsa Co. makes dips and chips, but they’re also doing a little dance as their business is growing so fast they have to construct a new building.

Sandy Albright, who’s been with the company since it came to Arlington in 1991, explained that she and her partners felt strongly about staying in town, but couldn’t find a structure that was the right size. That’s why they’ll be building a new facility a few blocks south of their exist-ing location in the same industrial park east of the Arlington Airport.

“We’ve been growing steadily for the past four years, and we’ve finally just run out of space,” Albright said. “One of the main rea-sons for our move is that we have to cook and package our salsa in the same space, but we can’t do it on the same day. From now until September, we’ll have to work seven days a week just to keep up with demand. We already did that during the Super Bowl season this year. Folks really love salsa with their football.”

The company’s current location includes 1,000 square feet for production, 1,500 square feet for food storage and 500 square feet for office space. The new facility will total 10,000 square feet. They have a 50-year lease with the city,

whose officials she praised for “being so fabulous.”

Although San Juan Salsa has been stocked at QFC and Whole Foods for years, Albright anticipates the bigger facililty will allow it to expand to Haggen and Safeway. She hopes to be able to present two new types of salsa and chips.

In addition to the two married couples who serve as the company’s partners,

San Juan Salsa employs two full-time drivers and two part-time production personnel. With the com-pany’s new building, which Albright expects will cost $750,000, she looks forward to adding one full-time and one part-time driver, as well as three full-time produc-tion positions.

“My husband makes all the salsas,” Albright said. “Every vegetable and spice

we select will pass through his inspection first. Even as we grow, we will never mass-produce our salsas. Even now that it takes two separate days to cook and package our salsas, it still takes us no more than three days to produce them from when we get the ingredients in.

“Everything is kept fresh. Our standards are quality and consistency.”
