According to the Jan. 15 article, “Snohomish shows signs of indecision,” the Snohomish City Council has spent over two years, several thousands of dollars, and much staff time to select a design for a welcome sign for Snohomish. The only result has been indecision and lack of consensus over the four designs submitted. What’s wrong with this picture?
Council members, here’s an idea: Schedule an open contest where anyone in Snohomish can submit their idea for a sign. Only the winner is paid. Schedule a time-frame on the entire project of no more than six months; then the council might concentrate on the more important issues facing our town.
