Texas Public Policy Foundation

Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming WINK-LOVING ISD agenda. There are 2 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.

🚨 Alert (LEVEL 9)

Board to Vote on New Property Tax Rate

📅 September 30, 2026

The board will vote to set the property tax rate for the 2026-2027 year. The agenda does not state whether the board will adopt the no-new-revenue rate, which would prevent the average homeowner’s tax bill from increasing, or if they plan to enact a tax hike.

Response

SHOW UP & SPEAK UP: Attend the meeting on September 30th to demand the board adopt the no-new-revenue tax rate. Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and tell them: ‘For Item 3.c, I urge you to vote YES on the no-new-revenue rate. Do not raise our property taxes.’

💰 Impact: Higher Property Taxes

Vague ‘Bond Sale’ Details Obscure True Cost

📅 September 30, 2026

The board is scheduled to approve information related to a 2026 bond sale. Without any attached documents, taxpayers cannot see the interest rates, fees, or final terms of this long-term debt before the board votes.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for the ‘2026 Bond Sale Info’ documents to be posted publicly before the vote on Item 3.b. Taxpayers deserve to see the final terms of the debt they will be paying for decades.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Debt Terms
