Despite the FACT the Snohomish County Council has not been presented the proposed sports complex plan … and that certainly means they haven't voted on it … Yes, despite those sort of important steps, The Department of Parks and Rec has brought in a work crew with their big backhoe and big truck … and, this morning, they demolished the old house, commonly referred to as "the log cabin on the golf course".

Just as with the club house and golf office building - the log cabin is now history.

Another item on the list of, "Building A Sports Complex In The Wrong Place"

The justification for demolishing the golf course buildings?  

A quote from Tom Teigen, Director, Snohomish County Parks & Recreation:

"It was determined that the most prudent, safe and cost effective option was to demolish the buildings. … The buildings represent a public safety hazard, attractive nuisance and have been targeted by vandals. As a result we believe the best  course of action is to continue with the abatement and demolition as planned and permitted. "

 Yet the golf course building and club house were both in use until the end of September 2012.  

If the buildings were that unsafe, why did the County allow them to be used for all these years?
