Naselle bond election fails for second time

 

April 25, 2013



For the second time this year, voters in the Naselle/Grays River Valley School District rejected a proposed building bond to refurbish and enhance school facilities.

In votes counted Tuesday, 366 voted in favor, 44.26 percent, and 461 voted against, 55.74 percent.

In Wahkiakum County precincts, 103 voted in favor, 32.7 percent, and 212 voted against, 67.3 percent.

In Pacific County precincts, 263 voted in favor, 51.37 percent, and 249 voted against, 48.63 percent.

The election would have authorized the school district to issue $8.1 million in general obligation bonds to upgrade the building housing music, and vocational classrooms, and it would have added a gymnasium and improved the athletic field grandstands.
