EMS levy lift would increase tax bill $200 for average Mukilteo house
MUKILTEO — On the ballot is a $1.7 million question.
That is the additional amount the proposed levy lift annually would pump into Mukilteo’s emergency medical services.
On Monday, the Mukilteo City Council voted 6-1 to place a resolution for an EMS levy lift renewal on the Aug. 6 ballot.
If approved by voters, it would be at the rate of 50 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation, starting in 2025. Property taxes would increase about $200 annually for a homeowner of the average Mukilteo house valued at $839,000.
