WARNING (LEVEL 6)
District Discussing New Bond Debt
📅 November 16, 2026
The board is receiving a ‘pre-bond update,’ which is the first step in planning a new bond package that could lead to significant new debt and higher property taxes. This is the earliest opportunity for taxpayers to influence the size and scope of what the district asks for, before expensive projects get locked in.
Response

ATTEND AND ASK QUESTIONS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link for contact details) and ask: ‘Regarding Item VI.D, what is the proposed size of this bond, what projects are included, and will the district commit to putting all new debt before the voters instead of using Certificates of Obligation?’
