A voter drops a ballot into a box in Seattle ahead of the Washington primary election on Tuesday, Aug. 6, 2024.

Alternatively, Seattle City Council voted to put Proposition 1B on the ballot, which would dedicate $10 million of existing funding from the Jump Start payroll tax to fund the developer for the next six years.

This vote, in the form of Proposition 1A, would extend that levy increase to 21 years, rather than the current six.
