Contact the City Council with your objections to the sale of the Wood Creek property.
Here are some of our tips and suggestions when contacting them:
We urge you to send your objections via email, or call all 7 city council members, and other department leaders as necessary.
If you're speaking on the phone, be brief.
Refer to the language in our petition or use our additional reasons to oppose the sale.
Don't use all of the reasons, pick a few that best resonate with you.
When communicating:
- Include your name, address, and neighborhood
-
Be calm
- Our energy needs to be professional
- Present to build support for our cause
-
Be concise
- Think in sound bites to be remembered
- Keep it simple

Be clear
- Speak from what you know
- Put facts before feelings
- Be collected

Update Clarification:
Thank You for the update. As you are aware Lowell, has a vested interest in what happens to this precious resource. Wood Creek flows down to Lowell and across Larimer Road into the AG land.

Hi Todd,
We are not sure, there has been no new information from the city within the last several months, and perhaps this is a good thing.

The City of Everett has proposed the sale of about 92.5 acres of undeveloped green belt property. Wood Creek lies in the valley between the Valley View and Eastmont neighborhoods. Wood Creek was the main source of drinking water for the city of Everett between 1898 and 1916, until the Sultan River water project was completed. The land and the creek is a critical habitat for a variety of animals and wildlife. Additionally, the land is unstable and many parts of the land are critically sloped. This group is for anyone opposing this proposal and for trying to preserve this critical land.
