Talk:Lake Stevens, Washington

message: Annexation section has been removed because (1) it was poorly sourced to a dead link, and more significantly (2) because it significantly violates official USCB estimates (see here), which are supposed to be used rather than local estimates. Nyttend (talk) 00:23, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Could this article expand on the variety/improve reliability of resources used to cite information? Many sources aren't current or have dead links, while the historical information has no references to cite back to. HunterDearden (talk) 09:29, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

message: Since 2005, the population of the City of Lake Stevens has nearly quadrupled from 7,400 to 28,069 currently. This has been primarily due to an effort called "One Community Around the Lake" to bring the unincorporated areas within the Urban Growth Area into the city limits. The table shown below details these efforts:
Area Annexed    	Method               	Month & Year 	Ordinance	Acres / Square Miles	Population	New City Population	% Increase
Northlake       	Direct Petition      	January 2006 	719      	855 / 1.34          	2,300     	9,700              	31.1%
Frontier Village	Direct Petition      	December 2006	729      	708 / 1.11          	3,600     	13,300             	37.1%
Soper Hill      	Direct Petition      	May 2007     	742      	292 / 0.46          	1,200     	14,500             	9.0%
Southwest       	Election (56.38% FOR)	December 2009	801      	2,374 / 3.71        	10,874    	25,674             	73.5%
Additionally, two small annexations have taken place during this time.  The Fire District Annexation, the  Station 82 property on the southwest corner of Chapel Hill Road and 99th Ave NE, occurred in October 2007 (Ordinance 745), and the Corniche Annexation, the  commercially zoned vacant parcel on the southwest corner of Market Place and 91st Ave NE, occurred in March 2008 (Ordinance 768).  Neither increased the city's population.
