📍 Drive to CROWLEY ISD Office   📅 Thursday, October 29, 2026 to Calendar
📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming CROWLEY ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Authorizing Land Purchase with No Public Price Tag
📅 10/29/2026
The board plans to authorize the Superintendent to negotiate and finalize the purchase of a large tract of land known as ‘Track 14 of Rock Creek Ranch’. The agenda provides no information on the potential cost to taxpayers or the method of payment, effectively giving the administration a blank check for a major real estate deal.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Crowley ISD Board before the vote on Item 12.1. ‘Before authorizing the Superintendent to execute a purchase contract for Rock Creek Ranch, the Board must disclose the expected price range and how the district plans to pay for it. Taxpayers deserve transparency on major land deals.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Land Purchase Price
WATCH (LEVEL 5)
Requires Verification

Undisclosed Grant Awards on Consent Agenda
📅 10/29/2026
The board is set to approve unspecified grant awards as part of a bundled ‘Consent Agenda’ vote, bypassing individual discussion. This prevents public scrutiny of whether these grants come with ideological strings, data-sharing requirements, or future costs that local taxpayers will have to cover after the initial funds run out.
Response

DEMAND A RECORDED VOTE: Contact the Crowley ISD Board. ‘I request that Item 8.5, Acceptance of Grant Awards, be pulled from the Consent Agenda for a separate discussion and a roll-call vote. Taxpayers deserve to know the source of these grants and what strings are attached before they are accepted.’

💰 Impact: Federal Strings / Unfunded Mandates
