Robert Anderson, Playor <br /> City Hall, <br /> Everett� Washington <br /> Dear Bob, <br /> It has become increasingly evident that the environment around the <br /> First United Methodist Church of Everett has steadily worsened. Much <br /> of the environmental change seems to be due to the fact of the number <br /> of persons speculating on old houses in the vicinity. I have taken a <br /> quiet survey of the immediate neighUorhood and have discovered about <br /> a dozen homes open and vacanC with windo�as broken out and ample room <br /> for invasion by tramps, hippies and the like. <br /> The situation was especially called to my attention several weeks -30 <br /> when my own pre-tecnage daughter was exposed to a male exhibitionist <br /> from the doorway of one of these vacancies at 3230 Colby. This, <br /> coupled with other comment,e Z have heard from the children in the <br /> neighborhood, would make it seem as a matter of public safety in the <br />` area� that these homes either be restored, demolished, or boarded. <br /> Some of the worst dwellings in the area include: 3230 Coiby, 3406 <br /> Colby (which is an occupied byl�deterioraL-ing apartmenL house), 3512 <br /> Hoyt, 3515 Wetmore, 3119 Rockefeller, 3301 Oakes, the two dwellings <br /> on the�northeast corner of 34th and Oakes, 3322 Lombard, and the <br /> house directly across the street from the church at 3529 Colby. <br /> On several occas:ons we have called the Everett po. .ce department <br /> on the last house mentioned and would he hopeful that this house <br /> might be either torn down immediately or restored for occupancy. At <br /> the time the house was vacated, cohich is only a few months ago, the <br /> home was in good order, and Like so many of the other places mentioned, <br /> would provide good low income housing in a sorely needing market. I <br /> would appreciate your attention and that of the city council to these <br /> matCers and a reply at your earliest convenience. <br /> ' Very sincerely youre, <br /> �. <br /> •� — <br /> Paul E.
