Town Marshal

The Town Marshal and Deputy Town Marshal are appointed by the Mayor and act as the Town's liaison with the King County Sheriff's Office.  Neither the Marshal nor the Deputy Marshal are deputized, so they have no formal police powers or authority.  They do, however, serve as a contact point for residents having concerns about issues in the Town that aren't serious enough to warrant a call to the Sheriff, e.g. issues related to parking, speeding on Village streets, excessive noise, etc.  Often, the Town Marshal or Deputy Marshal can help residents work through neighborhood issues to restore peace simply by giving everyone a chance to voice their "side" of the situation and find a solution.
