4 <br /> -The entire area on Casino Road from Evergreen Way to Airport Road and <br /> two blocks north and south of Casino Road is a current SODA area and I <br /> believe should remain so for the next two years. ACT conducted an extensive <br /> narcotics investigation involving the area of 5th and West Casino. We have <br /> found that drug transactions in this area are very commonly associated with <br /> violent street gangs. There was a murder in the 1000 block of West Casino <br /> where narcotics were involved. We have conducted interdiction operations in <br /> the area of Casino Rd. In one operation we observed three separate vehicles <br /> involved in drug transaction in a period of 2 hour at the same location on <br /> Casino. A narcotics K-9 detected narcotic odor on all three vehicle. Narcotic <br /> search warrants were served on all three vehicles, drugs, drug paraphernalia <br /> and a stolen pistol were recovered. <br /> CI- 1 <br /> 5?6 W __). ,ili'` no Rd' <br /> i- -- ------ ---——.,,: _41/ *Alp.....-- - fil 0 __ i• <br /> I\ <br /> _ !lig <br /> Airport Rd Evergreen ay <br /> -The area from 1000 block to the 3200 block of Hewitt Avenue and two blocks <br /> north and south of this area is a current SODA area and I believe should <br /> remain so for the next two years. This area contains several bars and the <br /> Everett Events Center. ACT has made arrests for narcotics related crimes in <br /> this area. Crime analysis shows drug activity in this area to spread about the <br /> downtown core. We have received complaints about narcotic activity and <br /> made drug arrest throughout this area. With the continued economic and <br /> residential development of the downtown core a SODA designation will assist <br /> in reducing crime in the area. <br /> Page 5 of 9 <br /> 29 <br />
