SEATTLE Mayor Bruce Harrell revealed his proposed 2025-2026 budget for the City of Seattle this week.

The Mayor, currently faced with a staggering $250 million budget shortfall, is ready to make cuts while also promising investment in improving public safety, affordable housing and addressing homelessness.

“It’s no secret that this year we’ll have to make some hard decisions,” said council member Dan Strauss, head of the budget committee. “I’m glad and relieved to see the mayor’s team did not have to make as deep of cuts as were predicted in January of this year.”
