Bothell City Council candidates spar over housing density

BOTHELL — With housing density and the environment top of mind, three candidates are vying for Position 4 on the Bothell City Council: Ann Aagaard, Carston Curd and Mark Swanson.

The Aug. 1 primary will eliminate one candidate ahead of the November election.

In the past, single-family zoning requirements in much of Bothell prevented construction of “middle housing,” like duplexes, triplexes and town homes.

However, this year, state lawmakers passed a bill allowing middle housing despite local zoning rules. The bill aims to increase housing supply and density.
