Historic city assets at risk as Edmonds battles mounting financial challenges

The sun is shining, the kids are playing in the water park, and downtown Edmonds appears to be thriving. But on this Main Street, Mayor Mike Rosen is talking about selling the city hall building. "We are in a financial crisis, a significant one,” said Rosen matter-of-factly, about the civic situation. “People are starting to call and complain about the parks because we can't get to them and maintain them at the level we'd like. “We had cuts in the police, our public records requests, which we are required to do. We had to let go of staff in our traffic and parking enforcement, animal control, so it affects the entire city,” said the mayor about his budget situation that has not improved, now an estimated $13 million deficit for the city of just 42,000 people. He explained that the city has not kept up with property tax collections, like other similar Snohomish County cities. -------------------------------------------------- For more on the story: https://komonews.com/news/local/edmon... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook:   / komonews   KOMO News on Twitter:   / komonews   KOMO News on Instagram:   / komo4   KOMO News on TikTok:   / komo4seattle   Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube:    / @komonews   Watch more top local news stories:    • Видео   For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-...
