MARYSVILLE – Totem Middle School Principal Tarra Patrick had a great sense of humor on the first day of school Sept. 3.
“I think someone put Miracle Gro on everybody” this summer, Patrick said as she looked up at some of her students in the office.
The second-year principal has a positive relationship with many students, smiling, others giving her hugs, and her complimenting some on their new hairstyles.
She was surprised to see so many students there early, con-sidering school starts a half-hour later than last year. She was busy telling students to go to different classes to get schedules. A regular seven-period day followed.
A teacher also in her second year at Totem is Kathryn Hicks, an eighth-grade math and AVID instructor. Hicks, who has a mas-ter’s degree from the University of Washington, said she “feels much
better” about school after hav-ing a year of teaching behind her. She’s also excited because she gets to teach geometry and AVID, which helps prepare students for college. She received AVID train-ing this summer in San Diego.

MARYSVILLE – Local teach-ers have been sacrificing money for years — first because of the poor economy and now because they want the Marysville School District to pass a bond to fix the many schools in disrepair.
So says Randy Davis, Marysville Education Association president.

The district’s school board ratified the contract with the teachers Sept. 2. It calls for a 1.5 percent raise this year, a 2 per-cent raise next year and a 3 percent raise in 2016-17. A first-year teacher would make $44,793, with the highest amount a teacher could make being $86,907.
The board was glad to see a three-year contract. When the economy was down the contract negotiations were annual.
“This gives us some stability,” said Tom Albright, board president. “We’re not worried about the past. We’re all ready to move for-ward.”
Board member Chris Nation said the contract gives the district some “unity going on. It shows we have the same common goals — to educate students as best we can,” he said, adding the state finally stepped up with some funding.
Board member Bruce Larsen said, “This shows yelling and screaming is not the way to get things done.”
Superintendent Becky Berg credited Davis with helping keep negotiations cor-dial.
“It was spirited on both sides, but we listened to them, and they listened to us,” Berg said.
Berg said sometimes union negotiations can be negative.
“It’s an opportunity to destroy relation-ships, but we built relationships,” Berg said.
Board member Pete Lundberg said: “We are partners. We respect teachers. This is our acknowledgement of what you do for our kids every day. I’m really psyched for the kids this year to see all their new stuff.”
But Davis said Sept. 3 that more needs
to be done. He said Marysville used to have the top salaries in the state.
“But we’ve slipped,” he said.As a result, Davis said the district is los-
ing good teachers. “We think it helps to be near the top”
to attract the best teachers, he said. As it is now, “It’s a drain, people leaving Marysville. We are more transient. They can hop on the freeway and get out quick.”
He said he knows teachers who live in Skagit County who used to drive here because of the good pay. Now, they have left and taken jobs in Mount Vernon because the pay differential isn’t big
enough to warrant the commute.
“They are will-ing to take a lit-tle less, but they wouldn’t when we were heads and tails above the others,” Davis said. “The gap isn’t that big any more.”
He said being a teacher is still a “tough gig” and if salaries continue
to not keep pace, it could lead to “less loyalty in both directions.”
Davis said the teachers union has been patient, accepting one-year contracts when the economy was bad. He said this new contract shows the teachers desire to have their schools updated.
“We need to pass a bond to update our schools,” Davis said. “Our schools are in disrepair, and there are some inequities. We want to help the district get there.”
He singled out Marysville Getchell High School and Grove Elementary at one end of the spectrum and schools like Marysville-Pilchuck High School and Sunnyside Elementary on the other.
Davis said the union supports Berg, who was new to the district last year. He said she is moving the district in a positive direction, with a productive work envi-ronment.

SMOKEY POINT — Although the Arlington Police Department’s Smokey Point substation was inaugurated Sept. 2, officials said that it’s still a work in progress.
Arlington Police Cmdr. Terry Quintrall explained that the substation allows officers who work in the city’s southern beat, in Smokey Point, to complete their casework without driving back to the police station in Arlington, in the city’s northern beat.
“That’s a fairly long time in transit to keep those officers out of this area,” said Quintrall, who believes that keeping the
officers closer to their beat will aid in the goal of reducing crime 30 percent over the course of the next three years.
175th Street resident Michael Rexford voiced his approval of the substation’s pres-ence near his neighborhood. “The biggest problem we’ve had here is the transients,” Rexford said. “They used to make threats and even show up in families’ back yards, but the police made a lot of progress in cleaning them out. With the new station here, the police will be able to react even more quickly.”

As election day approaches Nov. 4, U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Wash., talked with The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times about oil trains, school testing, Obamacare, Congressional bipartisanship and the ongoing Oso slide recovery.
Larsen outlined four areas in which he’s worked to hold railroads to higher standards on oil shipping, from tougher designs for oil tank railroad cars and increased inspec-tions, to classifi-cations to reflect more volatile oils and training for first responders to deal with oil train derailments and explosions.
“On the safety side, I’ve been asked about banning coal and oil trains,” Larsen said. “But because railroads fall under common carrier laws, if you exempt one, you’re opening the door to all of them.”
Rather, Larsen has worked with officials such as Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring to try and secure fed-eral funding for grade separation at railroad crossings, even as he described this as a problem that emerged as far back as the 1970s.
Larsen credited the Freight Action STrategy (FAST) for the Everett-Seattle-Tacoma Corridor with exploring and investing in how best to move people and freight along those rail lines, but cited the growth of the manufacturing cor-ridor in north Snohomish County as one of its oversights.
“The pace of oil train develop-ment has far outpaced the infra-structure to deal with it,” Larsen said. “The July report from the Puget Sound Regional Council was
a real wake-up call because it deter-mined that, regardless of coal or oil trains, grade separation is desper-ately needed.”
When asked about school dis-tricts being judged by Adequate Yearly Progress, Larsen asserted that student performance “should measure each child against them-selves” rather than requiring 100 percent proficiency.
“In baseball, if you’re batting a thousand, or even nine hundred,
you’re an all-star,” Larsen said. “We have schools that are doing that well and still being punished.”
While Democrats dif fer with Republicans’ sup-port of block grant funding for states, Larsen believes that “most are on board with getting rid of the AYP.”
A l t h o u g h Obamacare remains a divisive issue in public discourse,
Larsen claimed that it’s turned out to be “one
of the least exciting stories” and “a real yawner.” He pointed out that Washington state’s insurance exchange has seen a price increase of only 1.9 percent, and praised the exchange for expanding the state from eight companies offering 46 plans to 10 companies offering 90 plans.
“At my community coffee meet-ings, I’ve heard about changes in plans and lost doctors and increased costs, but I also heard from a small business owner in Marysville who’d never had health insurance before,” Larsen said. “There will be continu-ing anecdotes about problems, but we’re also hearing more positive stories.”
Larsen addressed concerns that the Affordable Care Act could lead to primary care physicians
opting out, by calling for more money for low-income health care options, such as Sea Mar and the Community Health Centers of Snohomish County, as well as expanded opportunities for prima-ry care education.
“Right now, the money is going into specialty care, which is having the perverse effect of fewer primary care physicians,” Larsen said. “If we can fund these channels, we’ll start to see the fruits of our labors in about eight years.”
Larsen is proud of the partner-ships that he’s developed with Republicans such as Alaska’s Don Young on arctic climate change and New Jersey’s Frank LoBiondo on aviation, but he readily acknowl-edges the divisiveness of Congress.
Larsen attributed much of the more extreme tone to redistricting leading to less competitive races, and to the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision allowing for vir-tually unlimited non-transparent campaign contributions.
Looking to the future of Oso, Larsen singled out fellow U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene for continu-ing his work to protect the Green Mountain Lookout, which he deemed an important part of fos-tering recreational tourism to help bolster the area’s economy.
“I was on the Snohomish County Council for fifteen years, so that slide hit home for me,” Larsen said. “I’ve paid a lot of attention to it, but for the area that’s no longer part of my district, Suzan has taken the lead.”
Larsen closed his remarks by touting the weight of his years of experience.
“People ask me if I’d move to the Senate, but I don’t want to give up that seniority,” Larsen said. “I’m the ranking Democrat on the Aviation Subcommittee and number six on the Armed Services Subcommittee. That helps me get stuff done.”
Larsen is facing Republican can-didate B.J. Guillot in the fall.

After more than 18 years in public service, Snohomish County Executive Director Gary Haakenson is retiring Oct. 8.
“Gary Haakenson is regarded as one of Snohomish County’s most dedicated public ser-vants,” Snohomish County Executive John Lovick said. “No matter what office he has held, nor the challenges he has encountered, he has handled it all with integrity and unmatched energy. He’s going to be terribly missed in this office.”

Get involved. It’s easier to say than do. We are all busy. We work, keep up our homes, take the kids all over, go to church, cheer on the Seahawks – we don’t have any extra time. But we need to make the time. Change our priorities. We need to get involved with our children’s educations.
What’s the use, you ask? Nobody listens. That is why education is in the sad state that it is in. Maybe that’s true in some districts, but not in the Marysville School District.
Superintendent Becky Berg is the real deal. She not only talks the talk, she walks the walk. Last year she started get-ting input from the community about what it wants in its schools. One gathering brought in 300 people, an unheard of number when it comes to parents supporting education.
She wants to build on that success. Lots of school leaders say they want input but Berg means
it. She has had community coffees and town hall meetings. She, along with the school board, has used online surveys to find out what people want from their schools. Berg says there are an array of approaches the district is going to use to reach people during their busy lives.
One new technique this year will be Parents Academy, where parents can learn about various parts of the school system. With that program, Berg and the district will try to break down barriers so the public isn’t intimidated by schools but actually is a partner with them.
It is true some educators feel they know more than the people they serve. The Marysville district wants to make a mockery of that type of arrogance. Berg and the district really want to reflect the voice of the constituency, no matter what state and federal leaders want.
It is a bold stance, and one that should be applauded.Similar to politics, if you don’t get involved you don’t have
much of a leg to stand on to complain.
Praise and razeRaze to the federal government for not getting rid of the
strict requirements for AYP. It gives schools a bad name when they don’t deserve it.
Praise to United Way for its Days of Caring. More of those events to help our neighbors should be organized.
Praise to Seacast for reducing its hazardous waste by 40 percent. All of us should help the environment.
Praise to local schools that are working to reduce concus-sions in athletics. We are just now hearing the horror stories of what can happen years later.
Praise to those who helped Oso survivors financially. It doesn’t ease the pain of the tragedy, but it does help it from getting worse.
Raze to those who stole from the St. Philip’s Episcopal Church. Come on. Really.
Praise to Marysville schools for ending pay to play. If that kept even one person from turning out that is one too many. Public education is for all, and that includes sports.
Praise to those who help fund the Back2School Rally in Arlington. Helping kids fit in is so important to their self-images at that age.
Praise to Mowatt Construction for being so careful not to pollute while doing bridge work on the Stilly river.
Praise to the Arlington Library for its summer reading program. Their awards program was a great way to reward the kids for their work.
Marysville district wants public input
We need industry
THE PUBLIC FORUM
Today, there is a tendency to look with distain at manufacturing facilities, especially those on working waterfronts. Historically, those facto-ries were sited there because the raw materials and finished products could be transported only by water. But as our nation progressed, railroads, highways and airports were added and industrial areas formed. Our legisla-ture, cities, counties and ports funded the improvements to specifically attract industries.
Past governors made economic development the cornerstone of their administrations. For example, Booth Gardner formed “Team Washington” and recruited high-tech industries to southwest Washington. Otherwise, those facilities would have landed in Oregon. However, today many urban dwellers, particularly those who buy condos along the waterfront, tend to look at industrial facilities as obstruc-tions to “their” views and annoyances to their lifestyles. One California transplant told me the Georgia Pacific pulp and paper mill was an “eyesore” and should be demolished.
That mill was built in 1883 and Camas grew up around it. It is on the banks of the Columbia and Washougal rivers and, unknown to him, it is one of the most-efficient producers of bathroom and facial tissue, paper towel and napkins. When plants close and are demolished developers swoop in with their billion-dollar plans to build high-end condos and office-retail complexes.
There is nothing wrong with that as long as the condo buyers fully under-stand their neighbors are industries. The railroad, for example, is integral to the Port’s operation and to the region’s transportation network and it runs around the clock transporting all kinds of products.
There are hundreds of examples where industries and neighborhoods coexist successfully every day. For proof, just visit Kohler, Wis., where the Sheboygan River runs into Lake Michigan. It is a village founded as a model company town in 1900.
Kohler is no Microsoft. The com-pany manufactures kitchen and bath-room sinks, bathtubs, toilets, shower stalls and faucets much the same was as it has for decades. Hot furnaces turn steel into molten metal for molds, bake enamel onto it, and also harden porcelain.
Yet the air and water are clean, children attend school a stone’s throw away, and workers and play in the parks and on ball fields. The neighbor-hood around Kohler’s headquarters and the massive industrial complex includes a five-star resort, complete with championship golf courses, an upscale shopping mall, theater, a wild-life refuge, and some of Wisconsin’s finest homes.
So, you folks who turn up your noses at the ideas of sharing the water-front with manufacturing facilities—and the jobs and necessary products they provide—take note: an industrial site can exist in harmony with any neighborhood,

Letter to the editor
For the last two years I have dreaded the Fourth of July. I cannot believe that people can get away with that kind of behavior.
I’m not talking about the illegal fireworks, which certainly are bad enough, but the fireworks that apparently are legal.
A grown-up old lady (81) sits and cries, and her small dog shakes in fear. My house shakes from those bombs going off to the north and south of me. My dog and I are right in the middle of this bom-bardment.
Sure I can call 9-1-1, but it does nothing. There is a cut-off time when they are supposed to stop, but do they? Not in my neighbor-hood. It continues to 1:30 or 2 a.m.
I’m not an old grouch or a complainer but I feel enough is enough.
Several years ago when my husband and I were gone, when we came home our lawn was partially burned close to several Evergreen trees that were in our yard. It’s a wonder the houses around us didn’t catch on fire.
I used to love fireworks. When I was a child my dad would drive us to see the fireworks at the stadium on north Broadway in Everett. It was wonderful. Not any-more.

TULALIP — They toured alongside John and Tom Fogerty during the 1960s as the driving rhythm for Creedence Clearwater Revival, and they’ll be performing at the Tulalip Amphitheater Sept. 7.
Creedence’s origi-nal drummer, Doug “Cosmo” Clifford, and bassist, Stu Cook, per-form as Creedence Clearwater Revisited.
“We take the music seriously, but we don’t take ourselves seriously,” Clifford said. “It’s a recipe for a good time.”
In 1995 Cook and Clifford formed Creedence Clearwater Revisited to pay trib-
ute to their original sound. Sometime before that, Clifford was liv-
ing on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe, and Cook was residing in California. The two
thought about relocating to some place in California.
When reunited in the same state, Cook and Clifford jammed but that grew old, and the two com-mitted to a new project.
The project started out small, but grew in popu-larity and were eventually promoted by a friend.
“We were doing private shows for about three or four months just as something to do,” Clifford said. “The shows went well.” Now the band tours nationally and internationally for rock and roll and Creedence fans.
Though Revisited stays true to its classic
sound, the kind of music is still relevant to the “single-digiters,” Clifford said.
“We have more young fans than older fans, and we continue to bring in younger fans,” Clifford said. “We do get a lot of air-play on the classic rock stations.”
Clifford and Cook look forward to spend-ing some time in the Pacific Northwest.
“We certainly have been around the Northwest. It’s a beautiful place,” Clifford said. “There’s lots of rain and we got the ‘rain song.’”

MARYSVILLE – The hunt for a new principal at Marysville-Pilchuck High School has ended — at least for now.
Despite an extensive search, the district leadership team was unable to identify a leader for the school this year. So, it has decided on two candidates in the interim.
Deann Anguino and Rob Lowry will serve as co-principals for 2014-15.
Lowry has been an adminis-trator in the Marysville School District since 1979. He started his career teaching and became
assistant principal of Marysville Middle School in 1990. He then was hired to serve as vice principal at MPHS in 2001.
Anguino was hired last year to serve as assistant principal at MPHS.
Previously, she worked in the Kent School District for 13 years as a math teacher and academic interventionist.
Also, Lori Stolee, a former high school assistant principal for the Coupeville School District, has been hired to serve as interim assistant principal.
Stolee also previously served as a director for the prevention center at NWESD and assistant principal at a middle school in the Mount Vernon School District.
Andrew Frost, the previous principal at Marysville-Pilchuck, who had served since 2010, accepted a position this sum-mer as assistant principal at Gig Harbor High School.
Frost said he wanted to be closer to his aging parents, and that he always wanted to return to Gig Harbor as he graduated from the high school there.
Marysville-Pilchuck picks 2 principals to lead the high school this yearMARYSVILLE – The
Marysville School District has been awarded a $1.3 million grant to help underprivileged students meet state math and reading standards.
The 21st Century Community Learning Center Grant will fund after-school and summer pro-grams for Quil Ceda Tulalip and Liberty Elementary schools. The grant will support academics and enrichment activities for 50 students at each school for five years.
The schools qualified for the grant because of the high rate of students who receive free and/or reduced lunch. The grant will help support a significant segment of the student popula-
tion that is not meeting math or reading standards and will fund teachers and coordinators to run the programs at both schools.
The program is expected to start in mid to late fall.
Members of an alliance worked together to develop the grant proposal and will pro-vide services for students and families enrolled in the pro-gram. The Washington Alliance for Better Schools includes 12 regional school districts who partnered with the Marysville library, Marysville YMCA, Pacific Education Institute, the University of Washington Institute for Science and the Geo-Literacy Alliance of Washington State.

SMOKEY POINT — For more than six decades of work with children and contributing to the community, Ruth Porter Munizza will be honored at the Stillaguamish Senior Center’s 10th annual Lifetime Achievement Breakfast fund-raiser on Wednesday, Sept. 17, at 7:30 a.m.
A lifelong Washington state native, Ruth began teaching at Arlington High School 66 years ago. She became popular so quickly that the girls in her physical education class asked her to be their Camp Fire lead-er after only three months.
Ruth’s four-year teaching career at AHS came to an end in 1952, when she married coach Larry Munizza, since husbands and wives were not allowed to work at the same school at that time. All four of their daughters attended AHS and went on to college.
Ruth continued her work with Camp Fire, leading five groups of girls over the course of 28 years, until 1976.
Ruth also served count-less hours in the Lady Lions of Arlington, which she joined soon after moving to town. Her activities included selling bonds for the Arlington General Hospital on Stillaguamish Avenue, staffing the Fourth of July Lions Club fireworks booth, and serving coffee and cookies at the local rest stop. She was elected twice as club president.
Ruth joined the Arlington United Church in 1960, where she taught Sunday school and,
in 1975, became a pianist and choir director for the Chancel Choir. She still holds the latter position to this day.
Ruth also contributed her talents as a pianist to the Arlington Manor’s weekday church services, and the Lake Goodwin Community Center, where she organized square-dancing classes.
In 1963, Ruth was hired to teach two classes of 12 chil-dren each at the Arlington Cooperative Preschool, which became successful enough to have a waiting list. By the time she retired 37 years later, she and her colleagues had taught more than 2,000 students, many of them children of her former students.
Doors open at the senior center at 7 a.m. for the breakfast on Sept. 17. To RSVP, call 360-653-4551, ext. 230, or email at [email protected].

Arlington aerospace company gets Homeland Security certified
ARLINGTON — An Arlington-based aerospace company has become one of only 44 employers in the state, and 254 in the nation, to partner with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations in a program designed to strengthen its hiring practices, reduce fraud and ensure it employs a legal workforce.
Universal Aerospace’s compa-nies — which include C&D Zodiac, B/E Aerospace and Jamco America — already employ 180 workers, but once they become compliant with International Traffic in Arms Regulations, they’ll be able to receive jobs from the government and mili-tary.
“More importantly we’re proud to be a leader among Pacific Northwest aerospace companies in obtain-ing IMAGE certification,” Universal Aerospace controller Talitha Bagtas said.
IMAGE stands for ICE Mutual Agreement Between Government and Employers. It’s a voluntary pro-gram that allows businesses to part-ner with the government to reduce unauthorized employment and the use of fraudulent identity documents.
Brad Bench, special agent in charge of HSI Seattle, explained that Universal Aerospace falls under the agency’s focus on critical infrastruc-ture, since the company supplies cus-tom machined parts to customers in the aircraft interiors and airframe manufacturing sectors.
“Our IMAGE partnerships enable HSI to foster best practices in the employment arena, and that, in turn, contributes to a safe and produc-
tive work environment,” Bench said. “When employers make a proactive commitment to hire and maintain a lawful workforce, it’s good for their business and it’s good for the com-munity.”
In the months to come, HSI special agents and I-9 auditors will work with Universal Aerospace management to help them complete the IMAGE certification process. As part of this process, the company has voluntari-ly enrolled in U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ free Internet-based employment eligibility system, E-Verify. This will establish a writ-ten hiring and employment eligibility verification policy, including internal I-9 audits at least once a year.
“As an immigrant myself, this defi-nitely gives me a sense of pride and security,” Bagtas said.
As part of the IMAGE program, ICE provides pri-vate companies with education and
training on proper hiring procedures and the use of employment screening tools such as E-Verify. IMAGE certi-fied companies also undergo an audit of their I-9 forms to ensure their cur-rent employees are eligible to work in the United States.
“It also speeds up the process of becoming ITAR compliant, especially since those documents number in the thousands of pages,” Bagtas said.
Bench added: “Most employers want to make sure they’re employing a legal workforce. This program helps reduce the risk of criminal fines.”
Andrew Munoz, public affairs offi-cer for HSI Seattle, emphasized that IMAGE partnerships are not limited to companies dealing with critical infrastructure.
Companies in Washington state interested in obtaining more infor-mation about the IMAGE program are encouraged to contact HSI Seattle’s IMAGE coordinator at 206-442-2200.

MARYSVILLE — Football has always been a part of Austin Joyner’s life.
“I’ve been playing foot-ball since I could,” he said.
He began the sport at age 5; he had two older broth-ers who also played. He’s always been surrounded by the sport. Joyner has achieved a lot playing the game, and now is fin-ishing his senior year for Marysville-Pilchuck High School.
He has aspirations to keep playing ball. “I want to be in the NFL,” he said.
Joyner’s talent is seen on offense, where he plays running back, and defense, where he plays defensive back. In his junior year Joyner scored 21 touch-downs and ran for 1,511 yards, but also proved to be a defensive prospect as well.
Joyner sees himself as a natural talent, but does put in his time practicing on the field and in the weight room. “It’s natural to an extent,” Joyner said. “I work really hard in the offseason and in practice. What you see isn’t just God’s gift.”
The forward-thinking, self-driven Joyner would prefer to play cornerback in the future. He observed the long-term effects of run-ning backs’ post careers. He wants to be able to walk later in life without the adverse injuries sustained being beaten up carrying the ball. “I always knew I was good at defense, and it fits my personal needs,” he said.
The Washington State University-bound athlete still has the opportunity to play both offense and defense. “They were one of the schools that offered me to play both ways,” he said.
Watch for No. 5 on the field during the game against Lake Stevens Friday, Sept. 12.
“It’s going to be a real-ly big game,” Joyner said. “We’re looking forward to it.”
M-P’s game last night against Kamiak was too late
for deadline, but go online at www.marysvilleglobe.com for results.
Looking aheadM-P at Lake StevensThe Marysville-Pilchuck
Tomahawks may have had it easy when they encoun-tered Lake Stevens early last season. That’s because the Vikings’ top receiver, Tevin Gray, was recovering from a hamstring injury from summer training.
M-P topped Lake Stevens 37-24 early last season.
But it maybe a harder game for the Tomahawks come Friday Sept. 12. Gray finished his, 2013 season with 61 catches and 11 touchdowns. As a healthy senior, Gray runs a 4.57-sec-ond 40-yard dash and will be a versatile offensive threat, forecasted to carry and receive the ball by Lake Stevens coach Tom Tri.
Jackson at MGIt’s not easy being the
fledging sports program on the block, and it doesn’t get easier when that team
has to square off with a bigger school. Wesco 3A Marysville Getchell High School, entering only its fourth year of athletics, will have to play legendary pow-erhouse Jackson, a Wesco 4A team, Friday, Sept 12.
Last season, MG fell to Jackson 51-24 late in the 2013 season.
Jackson will return senior quarterback Alex Cheesman and senior receiver Keynan Foster in the Timberwolves’ traditional spread offense — a formation popularized by Jackson in 2008.
Eagles at SnohomishIf Snohomish mirrors its
last season’s performance, then the Arlington Eagles will have no problem with the Panthers, Friday, Sept. 12. Snohomish was only 1-9 overall last season with its new head coach Kai Smalley, and were shut out by Arlington 17-0.
But the Panthers will return some key players who have worked hard dur-ing the offseason, Smalley said. They include: Senior
offensive and defensive line-men Nathan Jacobson and Alex Fairhurst. Others to watch for include: senior running and defensive backs Connor Browne and Boomer Vuori, and senior wide receiver and safety Aiden Kutsch.
Lynden at LakewoodLakewood has the burden
of playing the three-time defending state champs Lynden, Friday, Sept. 12.
Like Lakewood, Lynden went undefeated in the reg-ular season last year, then went all the way taking its third-consecutive state title.
The Cougars will have the home field.
Lynden’s returning, senior safety, Lucas Petersen, is just one of the defensive obsta-cles Lakewood will have to be mindful of.
Looking backJamboreeMARYSVILLE — The
only local football action last week was Marysville-Pilchuck High School host-ing Lakewood and Cascade high schools at QuilCeda Stadium in a jamboree.
The field was divided in half and had the three schools junior varsity and varsity squads compete in scrimmages.
The jamboree Aug. 27 allowed the three teams to
assess different schemes and take a break from inter-school practices before the start of the regular season.
“The reason we do jam-boree is just to have our teams take a different look at other teams,” Marysville-Pilchuck head coach Brandon Carson said.
“It’s just about playing football.”
“It’s fun to go compete against someone that isn’t your own team,” Lakewood head coach Dan Teeter said.
“It’s also a fun opportu-nity for us to play some of the bigger schools around here that we don’t get to see on our schedule,” the coach added.

Scholarship localMARYSVILLE – Addison
Borseth of Marysville was awarded a $3,000 Arnold Green Endowed Scholarship in Education by the Washington State University College of Education.

Borseth is the WSU Conduct Officer and is list-ed on the President’s Honor Roll.
ARLINGTON — The city has prioritized 16 projects for its proposed update to its six-year Transportation Improvement Plan, even as it’s experienced delays in implementing one of its Transportation Benefit District projects.
Public Works Director Jim Kelly addressed the City Council on both issues Sept. 2, after a public hearing on the TIP that saw no citizens submit com-ments.
When council member Jan Schuette asked if 59th Drive at the Arlington Airport was slat-ed for pavement repairs, Kelly explained that it hadn’t already been scheduled for TBD or Puget Sound Regional Council funding because it didn’t fall under the
federal functional classification, which it now does.
“That being said, we’re now considering whether we should do more with it, possibly widen-ing it to three lanes for freight,” Kelly said.
“So it’s in our TBD goals, but it’s not in our short-term list of repairs.”
While council member Marilyn Oertle approved of the list, she expressed concerns about the condition of the city’s crosswalks.
“We’ve already done our bud-get for the year, but it’d be a shame to wait on those, espe-cially with school starting back up,” Oertle said.
Kelly said: “We’ll look at our maintenance budget. This list is more about capital improve-ment projects, to accommodate our city as it expands and grows,
consistent with the Growth Management Act.”
Kelly was called back to the podium by City Administrator Allen Johnson to report on the latest status of the pavement preservation on 178th and 179th streets, as well as French Avenue.
“This is our first year in a while of doing pavement preservation,” said Kelly, who touted slurry seals as the most cost-effective method, even as he acknowl-edged their time-intensive and weather-sensitive requirements relative to regular asphalt.
“After an hour, asphalt is cool enough to drive on, but slurry seal takes close to four or six hours to put down.”
The city’s contractor was origi-nally slated to apply slurry seals to the three streets between Aug. 18-19, but the contractor fell behind on other projects and had
to reschedule for Aug. 29-30.“That Friday morning, we had
a downpour,” Kelly said, adding that only a portion of French Avenue was completed, but the city has only paid for that portion of work.
“The rain kept coming down that Saturday and Sunday, so there was no point in the con-tractor sticking around. They won’t be able to come back up here until next spring.”
Kelly closed his remarks by pledging to lay down new lines for the crosswalks within the week.
Council member Chris Raezer thanked Kelly for the clarity of this year’s TIP update, posted online at http://arlingtonwa.gov/modules/showdocument.aspx?documentid=8837.
The council is set to take action on this issue Monday, Sept. 15.
Arlington prioritizes transportation projects

City Public Works Director Jim Kelly addresses the City Council Sept. 2 on its six-year Transportation Improvement Plan and one of its Transportation Benefit District projects.
MARYSVILLE — The cleanup of down-town with the new Spray Park and the pres-ence of police on bicycles, along with the persistence of officers in driving out the homeless, has led to a 30 percent drop in crime there.
Marysville Police Chief Rick Smith announced that to the City Council Sept. 2, referring to a mid-year report.
“It took a phenomenal city effort to stem the tide” of crime that some said was “out of control,” Smith said.
He added it took a team effort of officers, code enforcement, parks workers and more.
The Spray Park brings a different clientele and has brought about less-aggressive pan-handling and less drug activity.
He said school resource officers came up with the idea for the bike patrol. He credited them with getting rid of homeless camps under the bridges.
“They stayed on top of it on a weekly basis,” Smith said, adding the overall crime
rate in town in down 7.35 percent, although the report wasn’t made available to The Globe by press time.
Looking to the future, Smith said the sheriff ’s office, Lake Stevens, Tulalip and Arlington police are looking into forming a regional property crime task force. The pilot project would target enforcement of property crimes and be housed in Marysville because
“we’ve shown good results,” Smith said.The program would be eligible for grants
and include a social service aspect to help those with drug addictions.
“We want to stop the younger users in schools,” Smith said, adding that is when many get hooked on opiates such as heroin. We want to make sure those “knuckleheads go to jail.”

MARYSVILLE — Marysville firefighters and police will be honoring the 13-year anni-versary of the attacks on the World Trade Center that took the lives of thousands of people, including 343 New York firefighters and 72 law enforcement officers.
The Marysville Fire District also lost Lt. Jeff Thornton, who passed away after a battle
with cancer on Sept. 11, 2001.
Members of the Marysville Fire District’s Honor Guard will be holding a ceremony at the Police and F i re f ig hters M e m o r i a l , located at the M a r y s v i l l e Public Library, 6120 Grove
St., beginning at 8:30 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 11.This event has taken place every year since
2001.This year’s program will build on past
ceremonies. Activities will include an invocation, an
address from Mayor Jon Nehring, the ringing of the bell in honor of those lost, music and a dove release.
“This annual ceremony helps us all remem-ber and pay tribute to those who died, as we also remember the loss of one of our own on that very same day,” said Marysville Fire Chief Greg Corn.
“As we look back on the events that took place thirteen years ago, we have a respon-sibility to those who gave their lives, and to those who continue to fight and sacrifice for our freedom and security.
“Marysville is a community that will never forget.”
MARYSVILLE — Crystal Keys knows that some pooches can sniff out when their owners are taking them to a pet-grooming salon, but at Bows & Biscuits, she offers another set of scents to entice them.
“Dogs might get skittish if they think they’re being taken in for a wash, but because we bake our own treats on site, the smell draws them in,” said Keys, a 15-year National Certified Master Groomer who credited coworker Cassie Erickson, herself a 14-year veteran professional in the pet industry, with supplying the treats. “They’re all organic, locally farmed and fresh, with no corn, soy or wheat.”
Bows & Biscuits opened at 5935 Grove St. in Marysville on Aug. 21, and received more than 200 likes on its Facebook page at www.facebook.com/bowsandbiscuits within its first week.
“I like to know that I’m giving my clients and their pets the best care possible,” Keys said. “We want the pets to feel clean and
safe, because we’re doing this just for them.”“We’re passionate about animals,” said
Bethany Dalton, Keys’ other coworker, whose 20 years as a pet groomer have included several stints at dog shows. “Dogs are a big part of my life, and I love when their owners get excited to see them all cleaned up.”
Keys explained that Bows & Biscuits’s basic baths start at $20, with full grooming services averaging around $38 and going up to as much as $75 for some of their bigger pets.
“We customize our services and products for each pet,” Keys said. “To start with, your pet won’t be in our salon all day long. We’ll get them in and out, straight through, so that your doggies won’t stress out. We hand-dry them and don’t kennel them.”
Bows & Biscuits even offers an indoor patch of live, growing grass for pets to relieve themselves on.
“We love your dogs like they were our own,” Keys said.

ARLINGTON — The city is considering further limits on its marijuana producers and proces-sers, after a public hearing that drew no comment from citizens.
Chris Young, speaking for the Community and Economic Development Department, pre-sented a draft to the City Council Sept. 2, that would reduce the maximum square footage for such facilities from 15,000 to 10,000. City staff had already proposed limiting the number of licenses for such businesses to 14.
Young noted that previous drafts had allowed 10,000 square feet for production, as per state
law, and 5,000 square feet for pro-cessing. However, because the state received more applications than it anticipated, those limits have been reduced, to maintain the maxi-mum 2 million square feet allowed for marijuana production within the state.
“For most of our applicants, the production and processing would be conducted in one step, so it didn’t make sense to separate the two,” Young said. “Cleo, whose chief operating officer, Steve Ciccarelli, spoke to the council last month, would be mainly pro-cessing, extracting THC from the plants and bottling it for candy and other edibles.”
“Don’t edibles fall under medi-cal and not recreational mari-
juana?” council member Debora Nelson asked.
“The state allows recreational edibles,” Young said.
Council member Jesica Stickles reiterated a suggestion she and Ciccarelli had made, to cap such businesses according to employ-ment density, but Young acknowl-edged that city staff hadn’t “found the right language” for such a con-dition.
“If we cap the number of these businesses at 14, when this sun-sets at the end of the year, we can revisit that,” Young said.
Council member Jan Schuette expressed concerns with the city’s legal standing to impose such limi-tations on a single type of business.
“If we do cap marijuana appli-
cants according to the numbers of jobs they would create, are they going to say that we should do the same for lumber yards that don’t have certain numbers of employ-ees?” Schuette asked.
“The city’s power of zoning is very broad,” city attorney Steve Peiffle said. “If there’s a legitimate, rational basis for it, it will probably be upheld. It only qualifies as dis-crimination if it’s against protected classes, which this is clearly not.”
Mayor Barbara Tolbert added: “Let’s not forget that the state is continuing to modify its regula-tions as well, so this won’t be the last time we tweak our own ordi-nances.”
The council is set to take action on this issue Monday, Sept. 15.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Police Department would like to remind motorists that children are returning to school. In order to main-tain the safest environment for our school children, we need drivers to be observant
of posted school zones and to slow to 20 miles per hour while travelling in them.
The Marysville Police Department, along with other law enforcement agencies in Snohomish County, will continue their “Back to School” enforce-
ment efforts and education campaign, focusing on traf-fic safety in and around the school zones.
“Our goal is to be a vis-ible reminder to drivers that
school has started, and that they play a major role in whether our children are able to travel to and from school safely,” Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux said.
Officers will target traffic violators, specifically those who speed in school zones and pass stopped school buses, as well as raise aware-ness about school safety in
Marysville and surrounding areas.
Drivers who are found distracted, impatient and careless can expect to face stiff penalties.

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re-ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quan-tity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the de-livery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space fi lled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902-1857.

ARLINGTON — The exterior of the new Angel of the Winds Casino hotel is nearing completion.
About 80 construction workers have been con-structing the $20 million, 125-room, five-story hotel since Oct. 25, 2013.
As work continues on the interior the crew has been cut to about 20. The goal of
the Stillaguamish Tribe is still to have the hotel done in December.
“We feel confident it will be late December,” hotel manager Laura McDaniel said.
The expansion also adds more than 100,000 square feet to the casino in the form of a gift and smoke shop, new main entrance and valet station, which are already done. The last major
expansion of the casino was about seven years ago.
It has been estimated that the hotel would bring in 45-50 jobs for the local community. McDaniel said she will be looking to hire
supervisors in September and other workers starting in October.
Some features of the new hotel will be double-room suites with big outdoor areas on the first floor. The
lobby, which will feature a fireplace, furniture and art-work, will also have three stations where people can check in. There will be an exercise room and room service from the adjacent
Waterfront Restaurant in the casino.

Lots of progress is being made on the new Angels of the Wind hotel being built next to the casino just past Arlington off Interstate 5. The outside, except for some finishing touches, is nearly com-plete. Hotel manager Laura McDaniel shows one of the first-floor suites, right, that has some huge rooms and an outdoor patio. Officials are hoping for a late-December opening.
Hotel exterior nearly done; opening set for late Dec.
