Mayor Lisa Brown has ordered flags at all City facilities to be lowered to half-staff to coincide with Governor Bob Ferguson’s directive that state and U.S. flags at all state agency facilities be lowered in remembrance of Major Ariana Savino from Covington, Washington.
While serving on active duty in the United States Air Force, Major Savino was one of six aviators killed in a plane crash on March 12, 2026. Mayor Brown encourages anyone with a flag outside of their home or business to join us in this recognition to honor her memory.
Flags will remain at half-staff until the close of business or sunset.
