County Councilmember Patterson commends
State Legislature for capping tax hikes

 
 
 

“The voters were clear when they approved Initiative 747 and the legislature was correct in carrying out the will of Washington voters. The voters' intent should not be disregarded and cast aside based solely on a technical court ruling. I was pleased to support the adoption of the 2008 King County budget, which was a balanced budget in keeping with the limits of 747. The state legislature should be commended for their swift action to uphold the voter approved limits on property tax increases.”
