The School Bond Proposal Questions appear near the end of the General Election ballot, for people using in-person voting machines. On printed mail-in ballots, look on the back side for these important questions.
The ballot seeks permission to borrow the full amount of $14.7 million and state aid will help make payments to buy back the bonds.
Much like a homeowner would finance improvements through a home equity loan, the district would pay for projects by borrowing (through the sale of bonds) and spread those costs over the 20-year life of the loan.
For this school referendum: Question 1 can pass on its own. Question 2 cannot pass unless Question 1 is approved.
