Clark County voter demands change amid housing, education crisis

Jonathan Hines argues Clark County's affordable housing has become "unachievable" with median home prices outpacing wages by 3-4 times. The Vancouver resident connects housing costs to Growth Management Act restrictions and hefty impact fees that push developers toward luxury projects instead of starter homes. His letter tackles taxation concerns, parental rights erosion, and declining education scores despite record spending per pupil. Hines frames the upcoming election as Clark County's chance to reject policies he says created these converging crises. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/letter-is-it-bad-enough-yet-in-clark-county-washington/ #ClarkCounty #Housing #Education #Elections #ParentalRights #Taxation #GrowthManagement #PublicPolicy #VancouverWA #WashingtonState
