A group of more than 50 supporters gathered on Thursday evening at Claire’s Restaurant in Edmonds to help 12-year Edmonds City Councilmember Kristiana Johnson kick off her campaign for re-election to a fourth term.  Johnson is facing two challengers in the Position 1 race: Edmonds Citizens’ Planning Board Vice Chair and Snohomish County Airport Commission Chair Alicia Crank, and Brian Hartman, Senior Director of Enterprise Technology at Blue Origin.

Edmonds Arts Commission announces 2021 one-time grant awards


Edmonds Arts Commission announces 2021 one-time grant awards

In response to the negative impact of the pandemic on the arts in Edmonds, the City of Edmonds Arts Commission has funded one-time grants for Edmonds-based non-profit arts organizations and artists in the 2021 budget.
According to a city announcement, the purpose of this new grant program was “to help build and reinforce a diverse, accessible and equitable cultural community in Edmonds, recognizing the uncertainty and challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the necessity of changing strategies to create access for all to the arts.” 
Seeking to support creativity, diversity and inclusive access to arts in the community, two categories of grants were offered: small grants of up to $1,000 for individual artists and other smaller organizations, and large grants of up to $10,000, which required a local nonprofit — or a partnership with one — for eligibility.

Mayor promises answers soon on what's next in police chief process

Mayor Mike Nelson
There will be a public statement “within the next day or two” from Edmonds Mayor Mike Nelson about “the next steps in the police chief process.” That’s the word released Thursday by the city’s spokesperson, Edmonds Economic Development and Community Services Director Patrick Doherty. He had no further details.
The mayor must make at least one decision quickly. Assistant Chief Jim Lawless has held the title of acting chief since January 2020. It was supposed to be a six-month assignment while Edmonds conducted a search to replace long-time Chief Al Compaan, who retired Jan. 1, 2020. The COVID pandemic interrupted the search; the Edmonds City Council granted a waiver to extend Lawless’ acting role for a second six months, which expires on Jan. 22. What happens then? Under Edmonds City Code,

City of Edmonds public information officer resigns

Jamie Holter
After nine months serving as the City of Edmonds’ public information officer, Jamie Holter has resigned.
Holter — who has worked in state and county communications for more than 15 years — was hired in March to fill the newly created position of half-time public information officer/communications strategist. Her last day was Dec. 16.
That position was identified as a key priority for the mayor and city council when they added the job in the city’s 2020 budget, but Holter said that recent issues — including the controversy surrounding the hiring of the new Edmonds police chief — made it increasingly difficult to do her job.
