Thank You, Mayor & Council — Now It's Up to Us

A levy is on the November ballot. Here's what's at stake.

Dear friends,

We want to extend a sincere thank you to Mayor Mike Rosen and the Edmonds City Council for voting to place a critical levy measure on the November ballot. Their leadership gives all of us, the residents of Edmonds, the opportunity to make our voices heard about the future of our city.

This is more than a budget decision. It’s about preserving the Edmonds we know and love for future generations.

From our beloved parks to public safety, infrastructure, and the essential services that make Edmonds unique, we believe this levy — combined with other new revenue streams — is a responsible and necessary path forward.

The power is now in the hands of the voters.

We encourage you to stay informed and engaged. This recent news story from KOMO 4 provides a clear look at what’s at stake:

"We either are going to take care of our buildings, or we're going to have to sell them." — Councilmember Vivian Olson

This is a pivotal moment. We’ll be reaching out soon with more ways to get involved, but for now, please take a moment to read and share the news, and talk to your neighbors about what this means for Edmonds.

Let’s keep working together to keep Edmonds vibrant.

With appreciation,

the Keep Edmonds Vibrant team
