Hey Seattle how do yall feel about the King County Parks Levy?

The vote is coming up in August this year. A small percentage property tax that goes to the County Department of Natural Resources and Parks. A big chunk goes to the Woodland Park Zoo and the Aquarium as well as smaller bits getting dolled out to city parks across the county and grants for public infrastructure, restoration and recreation.

This money also pays the wages of hundreds of public employees (all of which are public, many of which are unionized). The acquisition, protection and restoration of land and of course the maintenance of existing county parks and trails.
