What you’ll see on the August 18th ballot if you’re in the annexation area
We’re doing some election research right now and realized that you might not have yet seen what the annexation measure will look like on the August 18th ballot. Here’s the direct link; here’s the language:
North Highline South Annexation Area

The people of North Highline have fought for a long time for annexation. August 18th is an exciting day for every resident of North Highline. Regardless of whether you own or rent. Regardless of the color of your skin or the language you speak, you have a chance to participate in the American dream. This will be an all mail ballot so fill out your ballot early and send it back. Let’s let Burien know that North Highline area (White Center, Boulvard Park etc.) is totaly behind this annexation.
