Mike Brennan and Allan Giffen received Public Employee of the Year awards from the Master Builders Association of King and Snohomish Counties and the Puget Sound Section of the Washington Chapter of the American Planning Association. Brennan is Bellevue's Development Services director and Giffen is Everett's Planning and Community Development director. Brennan was honored for helping guide the largest downtown building boom in Bellevue's history and working with other Eastside cities to create a Web-based access point for permits and technical information. Giffen assisted Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson with his Vision Team process, which led to a new downtown plan and several development projects in the downtown core. Giffen was also instrumental in driving several redevelopment projects in the city's waterfront and riverfront areas.
