Issue 4

Information courtesy of Kent City Police Department

The City of Kent only invested an estimated 8 percent of the $120 million that has gone into building up downtown.
The City of Kent conducted extensive research before moving forward with the downtown project.
Although the development downtown is providing some financial benefit, it is not enough in the short term to cover unexpected state funding cuts.
If Issue 4 does not pass, the city cannot afford to replace the out-dated and ineffecient police station and continue some city services.
