Everett City Council adopts tribal land acknowledgement
EVERETT — Looking north from the tops of some buildings downtown, the bay and land of Tulalip are visible.
But the Tulalip Tribes’ ancestors lived throughout Everett and other parts of Western Washington.
A sduhubš (Anglicized as Snohomish) village called Hibulb once existed along Port Gardner and the mouth of the Snohomish River in Everett. It is memorialized at Legion Memorial Park as the Hibulb Lookout.
The historic connections between Everett and native inhabitants could be further tied by a tribal-land acknowledgement resolution the Everett City Council approved Wednesday by a 6-0 vote. Everett is just the second city in Snohomish County and one of a small but growing list in the state to have made such a statement.
