Mayor Jenny Durkan has proposed a head tax that raises less money for housing and homelessness services than a competing plan that has so far been supported by a majority of city council members.Under Durkan's plan, the city would collect $250 per employee from businesses grossing more than $20 million in annual revenue, raising an estimated $40.59 million per year. The tax would be up for review after five years. Council members Rob Johnson, Debra Juare
