The Everett City Council today unanimously accepted the plan to provide access to the proposed Navy base and Scott Paper Co. along what would become a crowded waterfront. The move called for a surface road using left-turn spaces and alternating between four and six lanes between 18th Street and Pacific Avenue along West Marine View Drive.

The Washington Ferry Service was planning to add a third ferry to the Mukilteo-Clinton run, though the additional boat was not expected to be in operations for two years. Steve Smith of the ferry system said the third boat had been budgeted.
