Turning Ideas into Proposals

Community members working as Proposal Advocates will review all the ideas that are submitted for feasibility and decide which should be developed into project proposals for the ballot. They will hold meetings to gather the community's input on the details of the project. With that information, they will then develop the project proposals with help from King County project managers. The proposals will include details about the project, including project description, who the users would be, cost, timeline, and hoped for benefit to the community.

Shout out to our Proposal Advocates...getting the job done all while working in a virtual setting!

Proposal Development

From March through June, community members volunteering as Proposal Advocates review ideas for feasibility and prioritize projects for the ballot. They will take the ideas and develop them into detailed project proposals (budget, implementation details, and impact), with the help of County project managers.

Proposal Advocates will hold meetings to gather community input on the project proposals being developed.
