2019 Bond and Levy

The approved 2019 $27.89 million Bond provides immediate funds for large, long-term capital projects that improve safety, security and other facilities needs.

The Bond is separated into two phases. Phase 1 is defined below. Phase 2 will be reviewed in 2028-2029 when Parkway becomes eligible for state matching funds.

Phase 1
  • Builds eight permanent classrooms to replace portables   
  • Build new multi-purpose gyms and stages at Columbia Ridge Elementary, Grant Elementary and the Ephrata Middle School
  • Enlarges cafeterias at Columbia Ridge Elementary, Grant Elementary, and the Ephrata Middle School
  • Remodels offices at Columbia Ridge Elementary and Grant Elementary
  • Renovates Performing Arts Center (PAC) and remodels PAC gym
  • Replaces the roof at Columbia Ridge Elementary, Grant Elementary, the Ephrata Middle School and Ephrata High School

Bond: Local Cost

Property owners will pay less per year in local taxes for both measures than in 2018 for the levy alone.
