Forums to Address Behavioral Health Funding

The League of Women Voters of Kitsap will hold three informational forums in August on a possible new sales and use tax increase being considered by the Kitsap County Commissioners as allowed by the Washington State Legislature. The tax of 1/10th of 1% (one penny for every $10 spent) would fund mental health and chemical dependency treatment programs in Kitsap County.
