Marysville teachers Hope sponsors bill to create local jobs hit the streets to protest budget cuts This action was previously scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 18, to raise public awareness during the legislative session, but was rescheduled due to snow closures. For more information, call the Marysville School District at 360-6530800 or the Marysville Education Association at 360-548-3446, or visit the Marysville School District website at http://msvl.k12. wa.us.
erty tax exemption for new manufacturing businesses, as long as they meet certain criteria under this proposed state law. For businesses to qualify for this tax exemption, it would require them to create a minimum of 25 family living wage jobs within one year of building completion. “This bill is a real opportunity for our state Legislature to act decisively in favor of local job creation,” Nehring said. Since the tax break would only apply to new or expanded businesses, the current tax structure would not be changed and it would not impact current tax revenue. “Schools, fire departments and other necessary public facilities would continue to
be funded at their current levels,” Hope said. “Meanwhile, the tax exemption for new construction will make the difference between a business coming to our district or going somewhere else.” Additional stipulations attached to HB 2722 would ensure that environmental
protections run concurrent with business development throughout the district. A population requirement of at least 50,000 people alongside a stipulation mandating that unused or underdeveloped industrial-zoned land will help ensure sustainability for the next generation.

MARYSVILLE — The shortened school day on Thursday, Feb. 16, will see Marysville School District teachers taking to the streets to direct the public’s attention to state budget cuts such as those that have already necessitated such furloughs. Students will be released from school three hours early that day, and their teachers will be taking time off without pay shortly after those students are dismissed. All teachers will be off work by about 11:30 a.m., and the Marysville Education Association has asked them to gather at specific intersections along State Avenue between 11:45 a.m. to 12:45 p.m., to wear red and hold signs focusing attention on the proposed state budget cuts. A statement released by the office of Marysville S chool District Superintendent Dr. Larry Nyland noted that this furlough day is a result of the 1.9 percent salary reduction imposed by the state Legislature, and added that the Marysville School District has made $21 million in cuts over the past four years. Cuts proposed by the governor for next year would require another $6 million in cuts to the Marysville School District, which its officials have pointed out would impact property-poor districts such as Marysville much more than richer school districts. Nyland and Marysville Education Association President Arden Watson reiterated that teachers would remain in their classrooms and continue to teach their students until school is dismissed for the day, and emphasized that all teachers, administrators and support staff who participate in this event will be doing so voluntarily and on their own unpaid time. Administrators and classified support staff may take their lunch time or request leave time off to join the event.
MARYSVILLE — State Rep. Mike Hope is sponsoring House Bill 2772 to encourage new manufacturing businesses and help create jobs while protecting the environment, which dovetails with Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring’s plans of establishing a manufacturing and light industrial center in north Marysville. “Currently, over 1,000 acres of real estate in Marysville sits empty, awaiting businesses to come and build and attract new revenue,” said Hope. “Unfortunately, Marysville, and other cities like it, lacks the adequate tools to encourage new businesses and job growth in this economic recession.” HB 2722 was written to help create a 10-year prop-
