Everett city, Washington
My vote power: High

What does this measure do?

Supports: Government Efficiency

Everett would change its rules for citizen ballot measures: signatures equal to 10% of votes in the last mayoral election, ten days to replace invalid signatures, and a city cost estimate linked in the voters' guide. Residents would get clearer rules and a cost estimate for ballot measures.

Proposed by: Everett City Council, on advice of the 2026 Charter Review Committee

The elected council sent it to voters in July 2026. A 15-member committee picked by the mayor and council reviews the city charter (its rulebook) every 10 years. Charter changes need voter approval.
