Lynnwood residents both recent and past drew to the Lynnwood commercial space on 196th and 24th St to draw attention via protest to city planned Methadone Clinic in that location's space.

Interviews with various number of residents, tenants, and even city council at the protest have drawn their rebuke of the planned clinic with many a concern but chief among them that an opioid clinic would be less than a 3 minute walking distance from a nearby Boys and Girls Club location.

This has raised the stakes in their claims: direct implications are opioid centers of the proposed size will draw said too many users and drug related crime into reach of youth centers.

To further complicate the matters, it has been stressed by residents that Lynnwood mayor and city officials have rushed this without appropriate notice/public comment to lay this and other considerations into focus before approving the clinic's construction.

This took place in Lynnwood, WA in Snohomish County at 1 pm and 100+ members of the public were present to lay out these and more problems with the construction to all sorts of News Channel crews from KOMO to independent journalists as Jonathan Choe.
