A GO bond acquisition requires Council action — and depending on the amount
and structure, potentially a public vote. Either way, this is the largest

arguably the most consequential given the location. The case for individual
members varies by district, but the commons serves every district: jobs,
civic space, cultural programming, and a stabilized lodging tax structure
that keeps Seattle hotels competitive.
