HeraldNet.com - Everett and Snohomish County news from The Daily Herald in Everett, Washington

I am writing to address the recent headline in The Herald regarding Marysville taxes, which described them as the largest tax increase in the county (“Maryville homeonwers to pay an average $818 more in property taxes,” The Herald, Feb. 7). The headline may have created the perception that Marysville’s taxes had spiked to extraordinary highs. In fact, school taxes are lower in Marysville than in most of Snohomish County.
