Residents losing homes for new Renton school complain about how district is handling process

  • The Renton School Board approved using eminent domain last week to acquire over 40 properties near Renton High School for campus expansion.
  • This decision follows a two-and-a-half-year search for alternative sites and a 2022 ballot measure supporting the new high school construction.
  • The district has purchased or agreed to buy 32 of the 42 parcels needed for the project, while negotiations continue with some homeowners like Kenneth Green.
  • Kenneth Green said, "Nobody's been happy with it," reflecting homeowner concerns about fair treatment and relocation despite district assistance offers.
  • Once all properties are secured, construction will begin on an expanded campus including new classrooms and athletic fields at the current high school site.
