Three months after the city of Mercer Island’s Proposition 1 bond measure — to fund a new Public Safety and Maintenance Facility — fell short of passage in the general election, city council is discussing options to address ongoing city facilities needs, according to a social media post.

Through a city-commissioned online survey, the city wants to gather feedback from residents that will inform this discussion “regarding their satisfaction with city-provided services and its approach to facilities planning.”

In the post, the city notes that residents’ “participation is crucial to ensure your elected representatives understand the community’s views.”
