Which story would you like The Columbian to report next?

You ask and we do our best to dig and provide some answers.

That’s how Clark Asks works, getting you involved in the news reporting process. Over the past eight months, you’ve asked nearly 150 questions and we’ve answered 18 of them, most of those selected by you in online voting rounds.

Here’s another chance for you to pick from three readers’ questions to help us decide which subject to dive into next. We’ve picked these questions for this voting round:

• Please look into the lack of support for grandparents raising grandchildren in the state of Washington. Why are we offered no type of assistance?

• When will it be time for Battle Ground Public Schools to be divided into smaller districts to better serve constituents?

• Why are some street signs green, some yellow and some white?

Vote for one of these questions in the box on the left. Recently, you asked us to answer reader Dirk Parsons’ question: “Each winter, motorists experience ‘Goodwill Lake,’ the flooded area of Highway 503 (near the Goodwill store). What causes it and can it be fixed?” That led to reporter Dameon Pesanti’s story explaining how “Goodwill Lake” occurs and that state officials say they have a plan to fix it this year.

If you have a question about the local area that’s vexing you, be sure to submit it to Clark Asks. You can also see questions that others have submitted.
