Mayor’s Message

As the Mayor of Edmonds I wish to encourage residents and visitors alike to use
this directory as a guide to the full array of shopping, services and dining available
in our community. Those of us who live and work in Edmonds should be especially
mindful of the impact that spending locally can have on our community. Every
dollar spent here results in a multiplier effect of economic vitality that supports
local businesses and local jobs. What’s more, patronizing local shops, services and
restaurants generates tax revenue that can be invested back into this community’s
parks, roads and public safety.

I’m delighted to serve as this community’s Mayor and, together with the Edmonds
City Council, we’re leading this community into a future of prosperity, inclusion
and opportunity. We are proud to boast a thriving arts and culture scene,
a beautiful waterfront, wonderful parks and public spaces, and a top-notch
collection of shops, services, and restaurants that serve our growing population
and growing numbers of visitors.

Edmonds leads the region in the high level of civic engagement and involvement
of our residents, something the City Council and I pride ourselves in and
continually strive to facilitate and grow. We encourage any resident, business
owner or visitor to feel free to contact any one of us elected leaders, our
department directors, or line staff to share your comments, suggestions, praise,
or just to stay informed and ask questions. Reach us in person, via email, via
Facebook or through our City website, www.edmondswa.gov.

Lastly, I’d like to thank you for your patronage of
our local Edmonds businesses, throughout all our
business districts, as represented in this guide.
Please share this guide and your experiences with
your family, friends and neighbors to help make
our local economy even stronger and continue
to grow to serve you even better. Together we all
make Edmonds the special place that it has come
to be.

Mayor Dave Earling
City of Edmonds
