We have less expensive options to explore that retains local control of our tax dollars.

A NO vote:

• pauses any property tax increases.
• provides time to fully evaluate alternative solutions for Fire & EMS services.
• provides time to recover fees due to Edmonds per the current fire/EMS contract terms.
• provides the city more time to minimize the property tax impact.
• sends our negotiating team back for a better annexation agreement with the RFA.
