study a ‘living document’ By
John Wolcott A five-month study of the north Snohomish County economy, commissioned by the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce, offers statistics that chamber leaders hope will provide guidelines for growth for north-county communities. “The immediate impact will be informing people about the details of the study,” chamber President/CEO Caldie Rogers said after it was presented at October’s North Snohomish County Economic Summit. “This will be a living document, to track and monitor. Next year, I anticipate quarterly forums on specific subjects, eco-tourism for example, bringing in experts for discussions on how to do these things. We don’t want to wait two-and-a-half years in between summits,” Rogers said. Copies of the 80-page study are available in print, on floppy disks or CDs for a nominal fee through the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce at 360-659-7700. Rogers hopes the study will stimulate ideas and activities that will help the entire north-county economy develop. On Nov. 12, Ben Frerichs of Economic Consulting Services, who prepared the report, will be available at the chamber’s new offices in Quil Ceda Village from 3 to 6 p.m. to discuss details of the study with the business community. Among the information gathered in the study:
