The special meeting of theKing County Council to vote on behavioral health levy
King County leaders will vote on a property tax levy that would help expand behavioral health access. This tax levy will cost homeowners $121 a year starting in 2024 for a median-priced home of $694,000. If passed, the county expects to raise $1.25 billion dollars over 9 years.
