The City of Snoqualmie is actively seeking residents to serve on the con committee for the August ballot measure concerning Proposition 1, a Public Safety Sales Tax Levy.

The city's administration is encouraging community participation, emphasizing that diverse perspectives are vital in discussing the implications of this levy.
