THE VASHON FIRE LEVY, PRO AND CON

Vashon Island Fire and Rescue says it needs a property tax increase to improve underfunded fire and emergency-medical service on the island. Opponents of the measure on the Nov. 7, 2017, ballot say the tax hike is too big, its purpose too ill-defined. Proposition One supporters Rick Wallace and Charlie Krimmert discuss the proposal with opponents Alice Larson and Hilary Emmer on “Island Crossroads.”
