2018 Facilities and Technology Capital Levy

The North Kitsap School District's 2018 Facilities and Technology Capital Projects Levy was introduced to address critical infrastructure needs and support a safe and effective learning environment. This levy aimed to generate an average of $10 million per year over four years, with an estimated rate of $1.26 per $1,000 of assessed value. The funds were designated for major upgrades and repairs to aging HVAC systems, roofs, security and fire alarm systems, technology infrastructure, turf fields, parking lots, and the pool. By replacing the expiring bond from 2018, this levy ensured that necessary improvements could be made without diverting resources from essential classroom activities and student programs.
