The Local Service Initiative proposes a new Department that: ● Creates cabinet-level ● Responds to local needs ● Improves service delivery representation Local Services

Creation

effective, and timely municipal services to the nearly 250,000 residents of unincorporated King County. In consultation and partnership with the Council, whose members directly represent residents in the unincorporated areas, we are creating a best-run local government to accompany the Executive’s best-run regional government.

Collaboration We are aligning Executive-branch agencies by collaborating, sharing resources, and creating service partnerships that reinforce mutual accountability. This coordinated approach will improve local service in

Customer-Driven We work every day to improve the lives of the people we serve. That means consistently monitoring and evaluating our performance to ensure we deliver value to our customers. By focusing on our customers’ experience, and integrating continuous improvement methods into our work, our employees will remove roadblocks and achieve results that make a difference.

Connection Unincorporated area residents deserve one, dedicated Executive-branch partner who listens, collaborates and works to advance their interests. We are working to ensure there is always a place at the table for more voices to help inform how we deliver critical services. We are committed to problem-solving and taking concrete actions to keep our communities connected and running strong. The Department of Local Services will be the conduit that drives enhanced communication between Executive-branch agencies and unincorporated area community members.
