If passed, approximately 85% of these levy monies would go to upgrade infrastructure that has not received any major work in over thirty years; additionally, the number of public restrooms and elevators would be increased to better serve the nearly 10 million visitors the Market welcomes each year. more info

04 / 15 Transportation Committee Start: 10:30 am End: 12:30 pm Tuesday, April 15 10:30 to 12:30 PM Skagit Station 105 E. Kincaid Mount Vernon, WA The Transportation Committee is going for a special meeting and an outing in April. Our meeting date is the usual 3rd Tuesday—but we’re going to Mount Vernon to meet with Martha Rose, Director of Island Transit and Dale O’Brien, Director of Skagit Transit. The meeting will be at Skagit Station, a multimodal transit center where the buses come in from Bellingham, from Whidbey and Camano Islands, and from Everett—and where Greyhound and Amtrak also come in. The reason the meeting time is a bit later than usual is so Leaguers from Bellingham and the islands can consider coming to the meeting—and coming by bus. Those of us going north from the Puget Sound region will probably want to carpool, because the bus schedules don’t work well for us. BUT! If we carpool, at least some of us plan to go on over to see the tulip fields after the meeting. It’s that time of year. So, please consider joining us for the April meeting in Mount Vernon. more info Membership Strategic Planning Committee Start: 5:30 pm End: 7:30 pm Tuesday, April 15 5:30 PM League Office 1620 18th Ave, Suite 101 Seattle, WA 98122 more info
