City Scene May 2017 3rd Street work complete The city recently wrapped up road and utility work on 3rd Street. Workers replaced an aging water main and built new rain gardens to treat storm water runoff. Benefits include improved traffic safety and walkability with new curb extensions and medians, marked crosswalks and intersection traffic circles with attractive land- scaping. Finally, fresh new asphalt was installed. This project, funded in part by a Department of Ecology grant, is a “welcome mat” inviting shoppers to visit our historic downtown and a variety of small businesses there – just in time for longer spring days! Thank you to the affected businesses, their customers and nearby residents for your patience. Similar streetscape improvements will begin soon on 1st Street. As Marysville continues to grow, we honor our city’s historic roots with attention to one of its oldest neighborhoods. Please stop by, explore and enjoy! Court update increases efficiency A small change can make a big difference. For judges and court clerks at Marysville Municipal Court, a modest renovation in April moved the clerk’s space closer to the bench, reducing work flow steps. May 1-5 is Juror Appreciation Week. The City of Marysville and Marysville Municipal Court judges and staff appreciate the vital service to the community that residents perform when they serve as jurors.
