Findings <br />What are the Challenges for the City in its effort to become more fiscally <br />sustainable? <br />Key Barriers: <br />Initiative 747 limitation on growth in property tax revenues. <br />The ability to control growth in public employee salary and benefit costs. <br />• Perceived reluctance to address labor costs. <br />• Relatively low median household income in Everett. <br />Key Opportunities: <br />Can we gain from Seattle's current challenges in retaining and attracting <br />employees? <br />In the wake of Boeing's 787 line closure, can we pivot to becoming more of a green <br />infrastructure technology center? <br />Can we benefit from having more land capacity than most other urban centers in <br />King County? <br />
