Marysville leaders ask Inslee to open local stores, churches
MARYSVILLE — Months after storefronts first shuttered, Mayor Jon Nehring and the Marysville City Council have asked Gov. Jay Inslee to allow churches and many small businesses to reopen.
The mayor signed on to two different letters with other Snohomish County leaders, and the city council sent its own. In each, they thanked the governor for his decisions made early on in the fight against COVID-19.
Now they believe more places should be able to open with safety measures in place, especially because some big companies have been able to operate amid the pandemic.
Most Marysville businesses are small and medium in size, Nehring said. Shop owners have wondered why they can’t welcome in a few customers at a time, while big stores have been allowing crowds of people to shop.
