This article is very bias to say the least!  Does Caitlin Tompkins live in Snohomish or just a good buddy of someone possibly on the council?! This article certainly makes you wonder.  There are so many things wrong here it hard to know where to start!  For one, whether you live in Snohomish or not, if you grew up in Snohomish or just graduated from HS here, or just do a lot of business in Snohomish even if its just to get a burger at the Pilchuck Drive In, if you have reason to call Snohomish your hometown and are interested in its well being should a person actually have to live in the City limits?  Well, I don't live in the City limits but was born and raised here, graduated from HS here, ran a business in town for a stint, nieces and nephews attend HS here, do a lot of business in town at McDaniel's, Haggen's, USPS, Cabbage Patch, Uppercase Books, UPS Store, volunteer at the foodbank, etc and frequent the Pilchuck Drive In.... so yeah, I have an interest in how my hometown is ran.
