Tukwila’s first-ever participatory budgeting initiative is now in the hands of the community. Through The People’s Project, the City has committed $100,000 to fund small, high-impact projects that improve public spaces, support wellness, and strengthen community connections. Now it’s your turn to decide how those funds are invested.

- 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐈𝐭 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬

Each participant receives 100,000 TukBucks to “spend” on the projects they care most about. Use your TukBucks to fund one project or spread them across several.

- 𝐕𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬

• Review the proposed projects
• Allocate your TukBucks using the ballot
• Submit your vote

The projects with the most community support will be selected for implementation. Voting will remain open until May 31, 2026.
