Everett City Council approved a $2. 5 million project to replace aging water mains in the downtown district during a special meeting on June 25, 2026. The project, identified by bid number EVC-2026-007, will replace approximately 2 miles of outdated infrastructure to improve water quality and reduce service disruptions. The council voted unanimously to award the contract to Pacific Utilities Construction, a local firm with a history of similar projects in Everett. The company must complete the work by December 2026, with a phased approach to minimize traffic disruptions during business hours. The project is part of Everett's broader infrastructure improvement plan, which includes upgrades to sewer lines and stormwater systems in the downtown corridor. City officials noted that the aging water mains have been a recurring issue, with over 15 service interruptions reported in the past year.
