Parks & Green Spaces Levy

On Monday, April 21, the Council created the Parks and Green Spaces Levy Citizen’s Advisory Committee. The committee will advise the Council, by June 30, on the pros and cons of asking voters to renew a parks levy on November’s ballot. As part of that process, the Committee will analyze specific parks projects that could be covered by renewal of the levy.

The Committee was created by Substitute Resolution 31055 sponsored by President Richard Conlin, and Councilmembers Tom Rasmussen, Tim Burgess, Bruce Harrell, Sally Clark, and Jean Godden. A poll released earlier this month showed that sixty-seven percent of Seattleites favor a renewal of a parks levy.
