KITTITAS COUNTY <br /> DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS <br /> PUBLIC WORKS—BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br /> STUDY SESSION STAFF REPORT <br /> STUDY SESSION DATE: August 12,2024 <br /> TOPIC: Road Fund Levy Lift Update <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: No Action Required <br /> LEAD STAFF: <br /> Joshua Fredrickson <br /> RECOMMENDATION: <br /> No Action Required. <br /> BRIEFING SUMMARY: <br /> • Required Road levy lid lift documentation has been submitted to the County <br /> Auditor's Office <br /> • Pro and Against Committees have been established <br /> • Public Works outreach consultant, Consor, is advancing final scoped items <br /> • An explanatory statement has been approved <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> Previously the Board approved Resolution 2024-133 to submit a proposition to Kittitas <br /> County voters regarding an increase in the road levy. Documentation for the road levy lid <br /> lift has been submitted to the County Auditor's Office. This documentation includes the <br /> resolution, ballot measure cover sheet and pro/against committee members. An approved <br /> explanatory statement(Exhibit 1) as required has also been submitted. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> State law requires that voters approve any property tax increase greater than 1%. The <br /> 2024 tax levied for roadways is $0.77 per$1,000 assessed value on property. The <br /> proposed road levy proposition increases the levy lid to $1.01 per $1,000 assessed value. <br /> This equates to an increase of$0.24 per$1,000 assessed value, or $96 per year on a <br /> $400,000 property. The approved proposition is scheduled to be on the November 5, <br /> 2024, general election. <br /> Public Works has contracted with Consor North America, Inc.(Consor)to provide public <br /> outreach supporting services related to the 2024 road fund levy. Consor is developing <br /> outreach material including messaging information which can be utilized. Outreach <br /> includes messaging for informational mailers about the proposed levy. <br />
