Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming LAMPASAS ISD agenda. There are 2 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.
⚠️ Warning (LEVEL 7)
Undisclosed Budget Changes
📅 Vote Scheduled July 22, 2026
The board is scheduled to vote on last-minute amendments to the 2025-2026 budget. The agenda provides no details, dollar amounts, or supporting documents explaining what money is being moved or why. This forces a vote on taxpayer funds without public disclosure, making it impossible for citizens to provide informed comment or hold the board accountable for the changes.
Response

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the Lampasas ISD administration. Ask them to ‘Immediately publish the full details of the budget amendments for the July 22nd meeting. Taxpayers deserve to see exactly what is being changed before you vote.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed
⚠️ Warning (LEVEL 6)
New Middle School Project Moves Forward Without Funding Plan
📅 Discussion Scheduled July 22, 2026
The board is set to approve a direction for a new middle school, a project that will likely cost taxpayers tens of millions of dollars. The agenda provides no information on the estimated cost or, most importantly, how the district plans to pay for it. This is a critical early stage where taxpayers must demand that any future debt for this project be taken to the voters for approval, not pushed through as non-voter-approved Certificates of Obligation.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Lampasas ISD administration. Ask: ‘Regarding the new middle school plan, what is the estimated total cost, and what is the proposed funding source? Will the board commit to putting any new debt for this project on the ballot for voter approval?’

💰 Impact: Potential for tens of millions in new debt.
