Is it legal for the county to partner with Kings Way Christian Schools?
Yes. State law gives the Board of Clark County Commissioners legislative authority to care for all county property (RCW 36.32.120(6)). Both the Washington state Legislature and the Board of County Commissioners encourage public-private partnerships to save taxpayer money and share resources. Over the years, Clark County has partnered with local school districts, nonprofit youth sports groups, religious groups and churches on similar projects.
