FERNDALE, Wash. — The $112 million bond measure to build a new high school in Ferndale, among other school district projects, will be back on the ballot next month.

The bond secured just over 58% of the vote in the general election in November.

That was less than the 60% super majority required to pass, but the Ferndale School District says community members asked the school board to run it again and they agreed.

If approved by voters in the special election on February 12, officials will begin collecting funding for the bond in 2020 at a rate of 92 cents per $1000.
