FIRE FRANKLIN! (vote her out November 4, 2025)


To save face, Franklin/Attorney Hall have blown your money at political poker. Take how Franklin/Hall needlessly cost Everett that $500,000 in the barista's 1st amendment lawsuit. It could have been prevented. Service windows aren't allowed to face the street. ONLY AFTER the suit did the City make the nudie bikini barista stands comply.

But, just the bikini stands. Any serice window built after 1995 required 8 vehicle holding places (ordinance 1848-92) (including fast food). YOu may not find a single service window that meets either of these laws:


"EMC 19.34.130 Drive-through facilities. 1. Drive-through facilities, where permitted, including vehicle holding lanes, shall not be located closer to the public street than the building located closest to the street."

1848-92 "Holding lane for drive up order placing stations shall provide room on site for a minimum of 8 vehicles and shall be located 100' from residential properties." And that's just TWO laws of dozens that Everett officials ignore to protect violations. Nearly EVERY business in Everett is missing required LANDSCAPING. That's why Everett looks like a concrete junkyard compared to lush green Snohomish, Marysville, and Lake Stevens.

Let's say it's only Franklin's "staff" that takes kickbacks. Can we give her a pass for regularly signing ordinances that secretly remove laws the City has broken? (Like, landscape, vehicle holding places, delivery truck setbacks, Everett's liability, maybe 100 laws she removed to cover up their crimes.) Their problem is, "Ex post facto" means Everett can't go back and erase past permit requirements, so Everett is still liable for every day permit violations are allowed to continue:

Everett code: 16.005.050 (11) "2. Any person, firm or corporation who violates any provision of this Code shall be deemed guilty... 16.005.050 (11) 2. ... and each ... shall be deeemed guilty of a separate offense for each and every day or portion thereof during which any violation of any of the provisions of this Code is committed, CONTINUED, or PERMITTED."

That means, if Everett is ever taken to court before a judge who is NOT in the City's pocket, it bankrupts the City- more than Everett's already projected $12.6 million deficit.
Just one location, McDonald's at 2001 Everett Ave, is in violation of about 40 zoning laws, so, at the code minimum of $250 per day per violation, EMC 14.40, a $52 million+ liability for Everett, and $52 mil for each official who participated,...

I'm not saying Everett can be saved, versus annexed to Marysille, but the least we can do is show our disgust and FIRE FRANKLIN.

Assholes, The City Mafia, and Trump

REALITY: Mayor Cassie Franklin's cohort, City Attorney David Hall, got a judge buddy, Cindy Larsen, NOT on Case 18-2-00105-31, to sign a false order ~stating that the City didn't have to meet permit requirements- when the law stated they did. The order convoluted a 14 day LUPA deadline with permanent permit requirements.
And, once another judge, Edirin Okoloko, saw that Larsen had ruled against law, he denied multiple set-asides to cover up Snohomish County Court corruption. Yes, really!

Yes, Mayor Cassie Franklin, you are business-friendly to a fault. The fault being businesses are often gifted permits that don't meet municipal code. The codes were there to protect the rest of us: residents who have no power. Your gang of compliant Hearing Examiners, Planning officials, and a judge or three has made your life easy. What's HARD is the job of the State Prosecutor's office, which now has so many of you to indict for racketeering.
