Policy Framework

The LOC has adopted a policy framework for renewal of the levy, which was developed with expert and community input. It outlines the goals of the levy, the role of the City of Seattle and the potential strategic areas of investment. The policy framework also lists the desired outcomes from levy investments and expectations for accountability.
