Description

The Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) has completed its review of the complaint filed by Susan Wilkins on April 23, 2019. The complaint alleged that Officials and Public Employees of the Lake Washington School District may have violated RCW 42.17A.555 for misuse of public facilities to support a levy measure.

PDC staff reviewed the allegations; the applicable statutes, rules, and reporting requirements; the response provided by the Lake Washington School District (District); the applicable PDC reports filed by Respondent; and queried the Respondent’s data in the PDC contribution and expenditure database, to determine whether the record supports a finding of one or more violations.

Based on our findings staff has determined that, in this instance, the evidence does not support a finding of a violation warranting further investigation.

Based on this information, the PDC finds that no further action is warranted and has dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
