The Washougal City Council adopted Resolution No. 1230 which authorizes the City to fund emergency medical services with a regular property tax levy. This measure would impose regular property tax levies of $.50 or less per $1,000 of assessed valuation for each of six consecutive years beginning in 2024 to replace an expiring emergency medical services property tax levy as authorized by RCW 84.52.069. Should this tax levy be approved?
