San Juan County Auditor, Natasha Warmenhoven, is seeking people interested in writing arguments against the San Juan Island Library District and Lopez Island School District ballot measures for the voters’ guide.
In order to ensure an informed electorate, and in accordance with state law, every district that places a measure on a ballot is responsible for appointing committees to write voters’ guide arguments both for and against the proposition. If a district is unable to appoint committees, that responsibility falls to the County Auditor.
The San Juan Island Library District has placed on the Primary Election ballot a levy lid lift to maintain current levels of operations and maintenance to support the District. The District has appointed a committee to write an argument supporting the proposal. It was unable to find persons willing to write an argument opposing the measure.
The Lopez Island School District has placed on the Primary Election ballot a replacement safety and technology capital project levy to support the District. The District has appointed a committee to write an argument supporting the proposal. It was unable to find persons willing to write an argument opposing the measure.
For that reason, County Auditor Natasha Warmenhoven is seeking people interested in writing arguments against these measures.
If you are interested in writing an opposing argument, please contact the Auditor at
