Good morning, Everett.

Everett Fire Department responded to two structure fires on March 26 after lightning struck a Valley View shed and a home on Kromer Ave — crews found no injuries and significant electrical damage in both cases — as the storm passed through.

Everett residents will drop off paint (oil and latex-based), electronics, computer equipment, televisions and confidential documents for shredding at a mini-recycling collection event on April 5 at Lot B of Everett Station, starting at 9 a.m. and ending when capacity is reached or 3 p.m.

The Sound Transit Board voted Thursday to name Dow Constantine as its new CEO (effective April 1st) after his service as King County Executive since 2009 and as a board member since 2006.

He will lead the agency as it implements the Sound Transit 3 plan for a $54 billion light rail expansion that will eventually serve Everett (with his first term ending at the close of 2026).

On Wednesday, the North County Regional Fire Authority commission chose Dave Kraski as the new fire chief after changing the rules so a candidate can use an associate’s degree — if hired before the end of 2025 — instead of a bachelor’s degree, provided he earns his bachelor's within two years. He will take over on April 1 after former chief John Cermak retired after nearly 40 years of service.

Everett Mayor Cassie Franklin spoke on March 28 and said public safety is her top focus by announcing a new police program and a youth violence prevention directive.

The plan adds more school resource officers and pilots a drone response system—moves taken after a recent youth incident as crime has dropped and tougher policies on firearms and juvenile justice are urged.
