2 dead in murder, suicide By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

LYNNWOOD — Detectives on Friday recovered a handgun from the home where two people, including a 16-year-old Mountlake Terrace High School student, were found dead with gunshot wounds.

On Friday evening, the girl was officially identified as Kandra B. Tan, and the other person as Liheang Ho. He was 33 and from Everett. The Snohomish County Medical Examiner classified the girl’s death as homicide and Ho’s a suicide. Both died from gunshot wounds to the abdomen.

No information was released about any connection between the two. The bodies were found at about 3 p.m. Thursday by a family member at a home in the 3100 block of 202nd Street SW near Lynnwood. “Detectives believe there are no outstanding suspects for this

Snohomish County can proceed with lease arrangements with a firm that wants to build a commercial air terminal, a King County judge rules.

Still life in Marysville

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

MUKILTEO — A King County judge last week upheld Snohomish County’s lease arrangement with a New York company trying to build an air passenger terminal at Paine Field. King County Superior Court Judge Samuel S. Chung rejected a petition from Mukilteo and the Save Our Communities group. Their petition, filed in March, sought to void the county’s lease option with Propeller Airports. They argued that the county should have performed a review under the State Environmental Policy Act before committing to the multi-decade agreement. Chung ruled Thursday that no such review is required; it’s already built into a later stage of the process. “We are pleased that the courts agreed with us and look forward to moving ahead with this project that will bring so much benefit to the community, including residents of Mukilteo,” Propeller CEO Brett Smith said. “We’re moving forward with the project. We’re very excited to get to move forward.” Smith said he’s in talks with airlines, which he would not name, about the future terminal. “There continues to be strong interest,” he said. Smith also said he would prefer to discuss the project directly with Mukilteo Mayor Jennifer Gregerson, rather than fighting about it in court. Gregerson said legal action has been necessary to protect Mukilteo from the potential impacts of commercial flights. The mayor said she was disappointed in the court’s decision, but ready to persevere. “We continue to want to protect our quality of life and it’s an issue that’s really important to our residents,” she said. “We’ll continue to pursue all avenues.”

comments will be taken starting at 5 p.m. It will be the third session to help the state agency and Skagit County figure out what to cover in the environmental impact study of the project. Similar meetings attracted big crowds in Mount Vernon and Anacortes last week. Dean Smith, of Everett, founder of the Snohomish County Train Watch, expects Monday’s turnout will be high as well.

“These hearings are what will determine what gets studied and that could determine whether or not this crude-by-rail facility is permitted,” said Smith, whose volunteer group tracks the number of oil-bearing trains passing through the county. Smith intends to testify. He said he will stress the need to consider the additional risk of See HEARING, back page, this section
