VOTE YES ON SPOKANE SCHOOLS, PARKS AND RECREATION BONDS AND LEVYS!!
 
Spokane Public Schools and Spokane Parks and Recreation are joining with community partners to present a shared vision for the future of our city&amp;rsquo;s parks, schools, and neighborhoods.
This historic effort aligns our separate Nov. 4, 2025, ballot initiatives to maximize taxpayer investments in:

Youth Wellness
Education &amp; Workforce Development
Public Safety
Arts &amp; Culture
Healthy Neighborhoods &amp; Adult Recreation

By working together and with a range of private partners, we can make strategic, fiscally responsible investments that benefit every part of our city &amp;mdash; whether it&amp;rsquo;s ensuring our children have safe places to learn and play, expanding recreational opportunities for all ages, or creating vibrant spaces that bring our community together in an effort to:

Expand and modernize public spaces to serve both educational and recreational needs
Invest in every neighborhood, ensuring equitable access to safe, high-quality facilities
Maximize efficiency by sharing resources, co-locating services, and eliminating duplication
Respond directly to community input, ensuring projects reflect the needs and priorities of Spokane&amp;rsquo;s citizens

This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shape Spokane&amp;rsquo;s future, and we are committed to ensuring that every resident has a voice in the process. We look forward to continued engagement with our community as we move toward two ballot measures in November 2025. With budget short falls and work shortages, this will be extremely important to keep local 238 members working.</description><pubDate>Thu, 30 Oct 2025 09:18:00 -0700</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
