Clarification on levy/bond proposals and tax bills

By Craig Degginger, Public Information Officer
Shoreline Schools
The District has received a number of questions in recent days about the levy and bond proposals on the February 9, 2010 special election ballot.

The M and O Levy is a replacement of an expiring levy from 2006 and combined with the proposed Capital Levy for Technology is not projected to increase tax bills for our residents. In addition, the District has paid off many of our previous bond commitments, creating the capacity to sell additional bonds without increasing payment obligations for our tax payers. In summary, the District projects that the passage of all three measures will NOT increase the tax bills for our average resident of Shoreline or Lake Forest Park.
