Washington HB2326 allows taxing districts to impose emergency medical service levies subject to voter approval.

HB2326 amends existing laws to allow taxing districts, including counties and cities, to impose emergency medical service levies. These levies must be approved by a majority of voters in a general or special election. The bill specifies that a permanent levy or an initial six- or ten-year levy must be approved by a majority of registered voters. It also mandates separate accounting for revenues generated by these levies and outlines procedures for referendums. The bill exempts certain levies from other statutory or charter provisions for initiative or referendum.
