Stanwood jail costs expected to exceed budget by end of 2025
EVERETT— Stanwood Police Chief Jason Toner said the jail funds used will likely be over budget by the end of 2025.
In an update added to the city council packet for the Sep. 11 meeting, Toner said the city has spent $53,078 of the $59,482 budget for 2025.
In his update, Toner said the jail budget is essential to maintaining safety and quality of life in Stanwood.
“We are a growing community,” Toner said in an interview Tuesday. “So just FYI for them when they go into their budget planning process, that they probably should raise it.”
