Everett Transit and Community Transit Restart Annexation Talks

Everett and Community Transit are restarting talks to merge Everett Transit into the larger countywide agency, potentially doubling bus funding in Everett from 0.6% to 1.2% sales tax. Both the Everett City Council and Community Transit board will consider an interlocal agreement this fall, which could increase all-day frequent service routes from 3 to 14 and evening service routes from 3 to 15 if approved.
