Voters Reject Tax Rate Increase and Bond Propositions
📅 November 16, 2026
The board will formally accept the results of the November 3, 2026 election, where voters defeated a Voter-Approval Tax Rate Election (VATRE) and four other bond propositions (A-E). This represents a significant community rejection of new taxes and debt, aligning with principles of fiscal conservatism.
How to Capture It

CAPTURE AND AMPLIFY: Document the voter defeat of the VATRE and all five bond propositions in Item 3.A. This is a strong example of community rejection of tax increases and new debt, useful for state-level testimony on fiscal responsibility and local control.
