Parents protest planned opioid treatment center near Seattle suburban Boys and Girls Club
LYNNWOOD, Wash. — A contentious debate in Lynnwood reached a stalemate Monday night over the planned location for an addiction treatment center.
Despite pushback from concerned parents, Acadia Health attempted to clear its final hurdle for approval to open its opioid treatment clinic just steps away from the Alderwood Boys and Girls Club, an after-school program for kids and teens.
Although Snohomish County makes up only 10% of the state's population, county data shows they now account for more than 18% of the heroin-related deaths statewide. As such, company Acadia Health said drug addiction clinics are badly needed in Lynnwood.
Still, protestors at Monday night's Lynnwood City Council meeting said that they are more concerned about location than anything else.
"I feel like this location is... crazy," said one public commenter at the podium.
"Safety," Jou Hou, a protester, told KING 5. " Yeah. The safety is our priority. It's the wrong location because it's too close to our kids."
Acadia Health is one of Snohomish County's largest treatment centers. On January 23, it plans to relocate its Bothell facility to Lynnwood on H. If it receives final approval from the state, the center would host an estimated 300 patients and it would be one of few local clinics that administers methadone, a medication for opioid dependence.
