Charter review findings blasted by Snohomish County panel
The Snohomish County Charter Review Commission voted 8-7 to recommend making the auditor clerk and sheriff appointive while keeping the executive elective. A prior vote favored keeping the executive but not the treasurer. The changes require voter approval and would place the clerk under Superior Court nomination and the executive appointing the auditor sheriff and treasurer. End of terms extend through 1987 with salaries remaining.
