The Metropolitan King County Council, the legislative body of King County, Washington, consists of nine members elected by district. The Council adopts laws, sets policy, and holds final approval over the budget. Its current name and structure is the result of a merger of King County and the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle, better known as Metro, which was a federated county-city structure responsible for water quality and public transportation. == Councilmembers == As a result of a County Charter amendment passed by voters on 4 November 2008 all elective offices of King County are officially nonpartisan; that being said, all current council members have made their party affiliations a matter of public record. *Rod Dembowski (D), District 1 *Larry Gossett (D), District 2 *Kathy Lambert (R), District 3 *Jeanne Kohl-Welles (D), District 4 *Dave Upthegrove (D), District 5 *Claudia Balducci (D), District 6 *Pete von Reichbauer (R), District 7 *Joe McDermott, (D), District 8 *Reagan Dunn (R), District 9 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「King County Council」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
