Ballard Business Men Oppose Annexation to Seattle
Ballard business leaders oppose annexation arguing it would force Ballard to fund a large trunk sewer and increase Seattle taxes. They claim bias from Seattle press and local politicians, urging a fair deal while preserving Ballard’s separate town status. Postmaster and local merchants voice opposition citing loss of town autonomy and limited benefits from annexation. A public debate is planned tonight as residents weigh Seattle incorporation against Ballard independence.
