Seattle Voters Face 4.5 Million School Bond Election
Seattle voters will decide a 4.5 million dollar school bond at the upcoming school board election. The measure includes a 3 percent mill tax to fund fuel, sinking fund, interest, and staffing costs, with about 860 thousand dollars raised and roughly 150 thousand for teachers’ salaries. A 60 percent majority is required for passage, and officials urge support to replace dozens of portable buildings with proper schools. Polling places are listed across city neighborhoods.
