All voters in King County are eligible to vote
on King County Proposition 1.
-Hello. My name is Sean den Bok,
and I am the School
and Public Programs Manager
at the Seattle Aquarium.
Your vote to renew
and replace the King County Parks Levy,
appearing on your ballot
as King County Prop 1,
will support conservation
by protecting thousands acres
of forest and open spaces,
invest in parks, large and small,
improve trails, pools,
and play fields,
and expand recreation
in environmental education
for underserved communities
here in King County.
The typical homeowner
will only pay $2.28 per month
over the current levy,
and it includes
strong, public oversight.
I'm supporting King County Prop 1
because it will help
combat climate change
by ensuring we preserve our forests
and green spaces to better protect
air and water quality.
It will provide new trails
where local families can get outside
and enjoy nature
in our rapidly growing region,
and it will fund needed maintenance
and upgrades of playground
equipment, sports fields,
and public pools to expand opportunities
for exercise and recreation for kids.
All King County kids
deserve fun and safe places
to play close to home.
Finally, King County Prop 1
dedicates funds
to help expand the aquarium
and broaden our education
and conservation impact
and it enhances education
and access programs
at the Woodland Park Zoo
to promote hands-on learning
for our next generation
of conservationists.
Endorsers include
the Seattle Aquarium,
Woodland Park Zoo, Forterra,
the Trust for Public Land,
the Nature Conservancy,
King County Executive
Dow Constantine,
a bipartisan council majority,
and many more.
