📅 Monday, October 5, 2026 to Calendar

Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming NORMANGEE ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.

WATCH (LEVEL 4)

Requires Verification

Vague Real Estate Proposal from Tax Collection Firm

📅 October 5, 2026

The board will vote on an undefined ‘real estate proposal’ from Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, a law firm specializing in delinquent tax collection. Without the proposal being made public, taxpayers cannot know if the district is selling property or entering into an agreement that affects district assets.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask: ‘Please post the real estate proposal for Item 4.a online. Taxpayers deserve to see the details before the Board votes on district property.’

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Asset Impact

WATCH (LEVEL 4)

Requires Verification

Undisclosed Provider for Board Governance Training

📅 October 5, 2026

The board will conduct its annual ‘Team of Eight’ governance training. The agenda does not disclose the provider, which could be a taxpayer-funded lobby group like the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) that advocates for higher taxes and against parental rights.

Response

ASK WHO’S TRAINING THE BOARD: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask: ‘Who is the provider for the Team of Eight Training listed as Item 6? Taxpayers should know if their money is going to a group that lobbies against their interests.’

💰 Impact: Potential Lobbyist Influence
