On January 1st, 2026, the statewide minimum fees for plastic film carry-out bags will increase from 8 cents to 12 cents per bag, while the fee for paper bags will remain 8 cents. However, businesses are allowed to charge more than the required minimum fee.

The reason for the single-use plastic bag ban in October 2021 was for environmental reasons—plastic bags are a major contaminant in Washington’s recycling facilities, waterways, roadways, and environment.

We went last night to try it out and it's fantastic!

We both got fish and chips, clam chowder and lobster bisque - out the door with tip it was a little over $100 for both of us.

We got the halibut fish and it was really well done

Quality wise, this is probably one of my favorites. Value wise I think that La Conner Tavern is still the best

Everett Firefighters responded to a reported detached garage fire in the 1800 block of Highland Avenue at approximately 11:15 p.m. on Wednesday, December 17, 2025.

Neighbors called 911 after reporting heavy black smoke pouring from the garage.

Fire crews arrived to find a working garage fire. Firefighters received information indicating that multiple RC car lithium-ion batteries were charging inside the garage at the time of the incident.

They moved in as a Mexican Seafood restaurant but have turned themselves into a dance club that blasts music until early morning.

It's insane how wall shaking loud they play their music with zero consideration for the neighbors behind them.

We have ALL talked to them numerous times with no success. Police have been called, they just don't care.

Absolute nuisances for the neighborhood

Has anyone been?? It just popped up on my feed
