District.
Mayor Pro-Tem Diener opened the public hearing at 5:43 p.m.
Karst Brandsma, South Kitsap School District Superintendent, provided a presentation on the
measures.
Jeff Dai y said no one against education; however, he will be voting no as you can only expand Port
Orchard to the west and that is owned by McCormick Woods. They would be the only one benefiting
from the new school. This is not solving the problem.
Larry M tchell noted this would be the 5th most expensive high school in the United States. There is
almost 100 million dollars that we don't know where it's going to go.
Ryan Hader is a McCormick Woods resident and has lived in 2 other cities similar to Port Orchard.
They had successful bonds and the new schools there were built, created strong communities. This
must happen and is not about Mccormick Woods.

Gerry Harmon was a teacher and schools were built where the population grows. New schools are
where housing brings in the new students. We need a new high schoo!. She cannot understand why
someone would be proud of not passing a bond in 30 years.
Gerry Aust n, Vice President of South Kitsap School Supporters, thanked Council for their past
endorsement of these measures. We have the largest high school in the state. All elementary schools
are at capacity and therefore the 9th graders were moved to the high school. He asked Council to
endorse these measures.
Greg Wall said the cost of our high school is comparable, or a little less, than surrounding high
schools. This is a comprehensive high school. Also, 2 years ogo, we changed the current school to a
four-year high schoo!, which is educationally better for the students. The last remodel of our current
schoo! was in 1978. This is the time to ask Council for their endorsement.
There being no more testimony, Mayor Pro-Tem Diener closed the public hearing at 7:25pm
Councilmember Rosapepe returned to the meeting at 7:26 p.m.
