Update: On August 6, the levy was approved!

The King County Parks Levy is a six-year, voter-approved property tax that keeps both city and regional parks, trails, and open spaces available for everyone. No matter where you are in King County, the Parks Levy goes to support your local parks and trails.

On August 5, KC voters approved ballot measure Proposition 1 to renew the King County Parks Levy for another six years starting January 1, 2026. The main themes for the 2026-2031 King County Parks Levy are: MAINTAIN, ENHANCE, GROW & CONNECT.
