Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that a county ordinance prohibiting the use of motor boats on a lake did not conflict with a statute permitting safe operation of motor boats
- ordinance prohibited operation of boats on certain lakes, while statutes concerned only the operation of boats
- ordinance prohibited operation of boats on certain lakes, while statutes concerned only the operation of boats
- \A statute will not he construed as taking away the power of a municipality to legislate unless this intent is clearly and expressly stated.\
- state statute regulating safe operation of motor boats nowhere expressly says boats are permitted on all state waters, so local ordinance prohibiting motor boats on Lake Bosworth does not conflict with state statute
- “There being no express statement nor words from which it could be fairly inferred that motor boats are permitted on all waters of the state, no conflict exists and [a local ordinance prohibiting the use of internal combustion motors on certain lakes in Snohomish County] is valid.”
