Notes:
Sensing a lack of support in the State Legislature, backers of a plan to build a new arena to house the Seattle Supersonics and Storm basketball teams changed tactics. Instead of asking for a new stream of state sales tax money, they instead asked for a continuation of local taxes used in 2007 to pay for Safeco Field and Qwest Field. The main legislative supporter was State Representative Margarita Prentice of Renton.
