Letter from Virginia Lane Regarding Zoning Non-Compliance at Glendale and Glacier Schools
A community member raises concerns about zoning non-compliance at closed Highline School District schools, including Glendale and Glacier, noting that the County was aware of violations as early as a July 18th letter.
