There are many other outlets for people to give their opinion. I appreciate SAN for announcements of events in our community discussion of the good things that are happening. Why allow opinion pieces at all? Thank you.

People are meetings 6’ apart in driveways! This is not what is meant by safe distancing! These are gatherings.

Late is better than never. (though not good enough when people continue to fill out and mail their ballots)<br /><br />Dan Adams<br /><br />****<br />Voters in the Shoreline School District should be aware that the week after this election, the King County Assessor's office will send out tax bills for 2018, and these tax bills are shockingly higher than they were last year. The average tax hike within Shoreline will be *19.3%.*<br /><br />One of the outcomes of the McCleary deal was that the Legislature slashed the levying power of local school districts. School districts are flying blind right now without sufficient financial guidance from the state on how much additional funding will be coming their way. Shoreline School District's response has been to ask voters to approve them right up to the limit of $1.50 without any solid numbers demonstrating that that extreme levy is warranted.<br /><br />In a year when the average homeowner will see their property taxes rise by nearly $1,000 over last year, it's irresponsible to give the District a blank check. In order to get more sensible numbers from the District, first we must reject these levies and tell them to come back with something better.<br /><br />Vote NO February 13.herrbrahmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08308204686231352936noreply@blogger.com
