Published 12:35 pm Monday, March 2, 2015

Just as the Issaquah School District completing funding of its current capital campaign, administrators are apparently preparing for another bond measure in 2016.

The Issaquah School District reached out to current students’ families on Saturday, via a letter seeking applicants for a community committee to suss out “essential facilty needs.”

The committee will take those needs and use them to shape a possible bond measure that would go to ballot in 2016, the letter read. Over the course of April and May, they will need to figure out the cost of the bond and the tax impact to voters before making a recommendation to Superintendent Ron Thiele.

Applications are available at the main offices of Issaquah schools (or at this link) and will need to be submitted by March 16.

More information can be found on the committee through its charter, found on the district’s website.
