D21 Seeks Bond Measure Passage

North Wasco County School District 21 is seeking passage of a measure that would issue a series of bonds totaling up to 235 million dollars over 20 years to build a new high school and three elementary schools.  The impact on property taxes would be $2.99 per one-thousand dollars of assessed property value, with properties in the former The Dalles School District 12 seeing a jump of $1.34 from their current rate as the bond that build The Dalles Middle School is retired in 2021.  Phil Brady, a member of the Strong Community Schools Committee, says the need isn’t just strictly educational, but also to attract businesses that have passed The Dalles by because of concerns about the schools.  The bond measure is on the November ballot.
