Crandall ISD Seeks Voter Approval for Tax Increase
📅 November 17, 2026
The board is certifying the results of a Voter-Approved Tax Ratification Election (VATRE). By putting a tax rate increase on the ballot for voters to decide, the district demonstrated respect for taxpayers instead of automatically raising taxes without direct consent. This is a model of good governance that other districts should follow.
How to Lock It In

ATTEND AND APPLAUD: Show up to thank the Board for putting the tax rate to the voters, regardless of the outcome. Contact the Board (see the Official Agenda link for details): ‘Thank you for holding a Voter-Approved Tax Ratification Election for Item 2.B. This is the gold standard for taxpayer respect, and we appreciate you letting the voters decide.’
