Seattle would replace an expiring library levy with a seven-year property-tax levy for 2027 through 2033. It would raise up to $68.54 million in 2027 and about $479.76 million total for library hours, collections, technology, programs, maintenance, administration, and a seismic retrofit. The first-year added rate would be $0.23 per $1,000 of assessed value. State-law exemptions would apply.
A YES vote means
Seattle could collect the seven-year levy for the listed library services and improvements.
A NO vote means
Seattle could not collect this proposed replacement library levy.
