If passed, the 2023 Seattle Housing Levy would be $970 million over the next seven years.
A housing levy has been in place in Seattle for nearly 40 years, and city leaders are urging Seattle residents to pass it again. This time around the city is asking for $970 million over seven years.
She said the people living at Plymouth on First Hill now would likely be homeless too if it weren't for the supportive housing. She said it is difficult to afford housing in Seattle. “There's a shortage of housing,” said Karen Lee, the CEO of Plymouth Housing. “Individuals at the end of the income ladder, there's just not a place for them to live. So, the levy really helps with homelessness prevention.”
Some people against the levy said the city should have made more progress with the millions they got from the past five levies.
