SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. — In February, voters will be able to decide on a new bond for the East Valley School District.
The East Valley Board of Directors approved a $220 million bond to replace East Valley High and Middle schools. The district says both buildings were constructed more than 60 years ago, and the new buildings will be built adjacent to the old ones.
The cost of the bond would be approximately $1.96 per $1,000 in assessed value. EVSD says because a four-year $0.73 capital levy expires in January, the increase in property taxes with the new bond would be $1.23 per $1,000.
The district will also partially fund the construction with $80 million in state funding.
East Valley says it will connect with the community more in the coming months to answer questions and take feedback.
