The City of Everett held a City Council meeting on June 17, 2026, which included public comments on various community issues such as fuel quality concerns, figure skating club programming and oversight, transit service merger opposition, and community engagement. The council approved 12 consent items and discussed several ordinances related to capital improvement projects, including the Edgewater Park renovation and the California Street Pedestrian Corridor Phase 2 special improvement project.
