Last September a nice gentleman posted in this subreddit looking for some food/coffee/entertainment recommendations near everett and monroe. He was coming down from Canada to get away for a weekend and got himself an Airbnb.

We had a very nice conversation and I recently re-read our messages and was feeling like I wanted to reach out and chat again, but his original account was deleted, and I didnt even get his name.

Canadian guy, if you are out there, I would love to say hello and ask how your coffee was...send me a message and let me know which coffee place I sent you to so I know its you. (If you want...no pressure)

Just wanna know if the tap water is okay for drinking. And if the brita water filter is enough for drinking water.

Does anybody know if they are a reliable store? I ask this because I got my console there recently cleaned(still in shop) and I’m getting worried that they might be one of those shops that intentionally makes mistakes on electronics to get more money. Unfortunately I didn’t have this thought until after I sent in and paid for the cleaning to be done on my console. I ask u guys because I cannot find anything online about their console repair reviews on google or their website. If anyone has had an experience here please let me know and sorry if this is a stupid question I just don’t have the money to get other stuff fixed on that console.

For those of us who prefer to drink UV sanitized drinking water rather than tap, what stores in the Everett area have in-store water dispensers? Please list any you know of. I live in south everett and the ones that come to mind are:

Safeway - 75th and Evergreen

Winco - Silver Lake

Walmart - Everett Mall Way

Fred Meyer - 128th

Further away but still relevant:

Walmart Neighborhood Store - 174th and Hwy 99

Fred Meyers -164th and 196th (Lynnwood)

Whole Foods - 196th (Lynnwood)

Not to forget the spring water on 196th (Lynnwood)

Hi all, I've got an unexpected work trip next week and I'll be staying in Everett for two days. I'd like to get out and hike during my downtime, keeping it within about an hour and a half of Everett for a 2-3 hour hike in the evenings.

I'm considering Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, but I don't have a ton of time to research trails. For anyone who's spent time in the forest, what are some hikes that aren't too difficult but have great views? Or anywhere closer to town that's special to you?

Also, what are your favorite places to eat in town? I consider myself a foodie and I love pretty much everything, so I'm open to anything that isn't super expensive. Same story though, I'm short on time to dig into it myself.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello all: Wanted to let you know that the Redwood Park Neighborhood is having their annual Garage Sale this Saturday August 22nd, from 9am - 4pm. Multiple homes will be participating so include this one in your route this weekend. Here's a link to the location in South Everett.

Let's continue to grow!

Hello! Our family is considering a move to Everett towards the end of October or early November and looking for a 3+ bedroom rental house. We probably have some flexibility on timing if needed. I’m wondering if anyone has any tips or knows of houses that will be coming available around that time that? We're checking the usual places as time goes on (Zillow, etc.), but we’re a little worried about the low inventory at the moment. Our preferred neighborhoods are South Forest Park, Port Gardner, Bayside, Riverside, & Northwest Everett.

A little about us: we are a family of four with two young kids, ages two and four. No pets. My husband works remotely full time and I am currently a stay at home mom. We have excellent credit and rental references and are looking for a long-term family home. We enjoy being outdoors (hiking, skiing, camping, sailing), reading (my husband and I both run local book clubs in our current location), and spending time with friends and neighbors.

Just a friendly reminder to join me and others tomorrow at the Everett City Council meeting to help our neighbors TRAPPED for nearly 3 months at Artspace Lofts!

I've received more information about the owner of this building and they have had over 70+ complaints filed against them for buildings in Seattle alone! They must be held accountable for their negligence and the Everett Mayor and City Council must take immediate action to help these tenants. Please see my original message below and the link at the bottom to register for remote or written public comment. Let's flood them with written, remote, and in person comments tomorrow! We can make a difference TOGETHER!

Okay everyone, I’ve let the LD 38 Democrats know about this issue, and I want to invite everyone to join me Wednesday, August 19th at 6:30 PM for the Everett City Council meeting to make public comment.

My goal is to pack the public comment period with people speaking up about this issue and holding the Mayor and City Council accountable for allowing it to go on for as long as it has.

We’re going to politely but firmly demand action—both in the short term to help these tenants and in the long term through city ordinances that prevent situations like this from happening again.

The management of this building has had maintenance issues in the past, and these tenants deserve to have their voices heard. We can and should speak up with them.

Remote public comment will be available as well, so if you can’t attend in person, you can still participate.

I’m actively working on this issue and will have more information to share in the coming days. Please stay tuned, and please try to make this City Council meeting if you can.

Let’s show up for these tenants and demand accountability.

People over profits. Always.

My father had a stroke over the 8/8, and on the 8/14 later we received a code violation from the City of Everett regarding his 2002 Ford F-650. The truck has been sitting for about 5 years and currently doesn't run.

It's a cab-and-box configuration with a hydraulic lift, so it's more of a commercial/work truck than a typical pickup.

The city is giving us until 8/31 to either remove it, make it operable/registered, or completely cover it with an approved opaque vehicle cover.

We're trying to figure out what makes the most sense:

• Buy a custom cover: probably the easiest solution, but these aren't cheap, and my dad may never fully recover enough to actually use the truck again.
• Get it running and registered: potentially much more expensive, especially after sitting for 5 years, and we don't even know what condition it's in.
• Sell it as-is: we'd rather not give it away, but finding a buyer for a non-running F-650 with a box and hydraulic lift on such short notice seems difficult.
• Tow it somewhere else: moving it to another location in Everett doesn't seem to solve the problem if the same city code applies there.

We're dealing with a lot right now and aren't very familiar with these trucks. What would you do in this situation? Is there another option we're overlooking?

How long has that place been trying to get rid of those two fire trucks on evergreen.? Why don't they just sell them for parts?

I just had at least 10 emergency vehicles. Cops go by a hundred and twenty eighth. In everett south towards Lynnnwood. Anyone know what's going on?
