South Kitsap Fire and Rescue District
Proposition No. 1
Temporary Property Tax Limit Increase

The South Kitsap Fire and Rescue (SKFR) Board of Commissioners adopted Resolution 2012-01 proposing renewal of a temporary increase in the property tax limit.  The purpose of this six-year measure is to provide revenue needed to continue employing twenty Firefighter/EMT’s/Paramedics by avoiding a reduction in the annual levy of approximately $1,800,000.  This measure would authorize SKFR to levy up to $1.48 per $1,000 of assessed value for collection beginning in 2013.  The first year’s authorized levy amount would be used to compute the levy limitations for each of the five years after 2013 under Chapter 84.55 RCW.  Should this proposition be enacted into law?  (Pursuant to RCW 84.55.050 & SKFR Resolution No. 2012-01)
