Vote on Tuesday, Feb. 10 for Highline Schools bond and Seattle City Council positions
Mon, 02/02/2015
Feb. 10 offers an election with some of the familiar and some new aspects. The perennial school bond measures which based on the structure of state law means districts must come back to the voters for funding based on property taxes. This time it's the Highline School District seeking $376 million.
What's new for Seattle voters is the District 1 position for the Seattle City Council with three candidates vying for the slot. Tom Rasmussen, the incumbent, has bowed out.
Highline Schools Bond measure
Highline Public Schools says the repairs and a long list of others can no longer wait, and they're urging voters to approve a $376 million bond measure, which would raise homeowners' property taxes. The owners of a $200,000 home would pay an additional roughly $220 a year.
