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.

This initiative reflects the city's commitment to maintaining and improving public safety resources, which are essential for community well-being.
