MARYSVILLE – Another annexation, this one 71 acres, will be discussed at the City Council work session tonight, along with the city’s legislative priorities and design of the First Street Bypass.

The annexation would extend the city’s boundary to the south, from Ebey to Steamboat Slough. Most of the land is east of the railroad tracks. It would be zoned for industrial use.

Tops on both the state and federal legislative priorities list is the $20 million Ebey Waterfront Park and Trail Project. The city believes the project qualifies for funding from both because it would be a regional attraction as the gateway to the 84-mile Skykomish to Sound Water Trail.

The $1.02 million Centennial Trail Connector at the Bayview Trail is second, as it would connect to the 29-mile trail from Snohomish to the Skagit County line.

The Grove Street Overcrossing ranks third, at a cost of $22 million. It would eliminate some of the congestion in town, which can back up traffic even on Interstate 5 when trains come through town.

Funds for a new Public Safety building rank fourth. Under general policies, the city plans to address homelessness, mental health and opioid issues.

Also on the agenda:

•Reduce drive-alone trips of city workers to cut down on congestion and pollution.

•Pick a design team for the First Street Bypass.

And, presentations will be given by Community Transit, Emergency Management and Communications.

The meeting starts at 7 p.m. at City Hall.
