November 10, 2021 <br /> MAYOR <br /> Mayor Franklin wanted to say Happy Veteran's Day and thanks to all the service <br /> men and women. <br /> Mayor Franklin reminded the public and staff that there are a few boards and <br /> commissions currently accepting applications and encouraged citizens to check <br /> out the City's website and apply, if interested. <br /> Mayor Franklin made a comment about the article in the Everett Herald this week <br /> regarding Snohomish County's interest in buying a hotel in Everett to serve <br /> homeless populations. The City has been working closely with other jurisdictions <br /> to advocate to the County for solutions and support to address the growing crisis <br /> for Everett and other County cities. She also expressed to the County the <br /> expectation that any program that is centered in Everett, serves Everett and will <br /> not become a county-wide operation. The County is working with other <br /> jurisdictions on solutions in their own jurisdictions as well. The properties the <br /> County is considering are zoned mixed use and within that zone, housing and <br /> shelter are appropriate for that use. Once formalized, they will have to work with <br /> Planning for the traditional review and approval processes. <br /> Mayor Franklin then invited Chief Templeman from the Police Department to <br /> introduce two new police officers. <br /> OATH —POLICE OFFICERS <br /> Moved by Council Member Roberts, seconded by Council Member Vogeli, to <br /> concur with the appointments of Devona Heyward and Jeremy Fritsche as new <br /> Everett police officers. <br /> Roll was called with all Council Members voting yes, except President Stonecipher, <br /> and Council Member Tuohy, and Moore, who were excused. <br /> Motion carried. <br /> 2 <br />
