The City of Mukilteo plans to add a ballot measure to the August 6, 2024, Primary Election to restore the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Levy to the previously approved (2010) rate of $0.50 per $1,000.00 of assessed valuation from its current rate which has decreased to $0.275 per $1,000.00 of assessed valuation. The decision regarding this levy lid lift will be finalized at the upcoming April 15 City Council Meeting.
