Cost - Approximately $30 million to $33.5 million
Funding - Bond financing for this project will raise the overall school tax rate by 10 cents, in addition to other revenue sources.
Public Process - After two 1028 public hearings regarding the funding proposal in November and December of 2019, the public had 30 days to file a remonstrance or a petition against the proposed increase. No remonstrance was filed. The project was not expensive enough to warrant a referendum. Therefore, this project proceeded as planned.
