Ursula not voting for staggering $1.3 billion education levy

Seattle voters are being asked to dig even deeper to replace the expiring Families, Education, Preschool, and Promise (FEPP) Levy. The new levy would cost homeowners a staggering $1.3 billion — double the size of the current levy of $619 million, Cascade PBS reported.

The owner of a $1.08 million Seattle home would pay around $656 a year, up $400. KIRO host Ursula Reutin said that while she normally votes yes, this is too much.
