Facing a deep financial crisis in Edmonds, and a possible $4.5 million operations levy in November, city officials are asking for formal citizen input.
The first step will be a Citizens Levy Review Committee, which will convene in March, and will be open to any citizen of Edmonds, according to city council president DJ Wilson.
The group will discuss revenue options for the city, Wilson said.
The group will eventually offer a report to the Edmonds City Council.
