SCHOOL DISTRICT QUESTION 2 (ISD #600)
Renewal of Expiring Capital Project Levy Authorization
The board of Independent School District No. 600 (Fisher Public School) has proposed a capital project levy authorization of 6.992% times the net tax capacity of the school district. This authorization would renew the school district’s existing authorization which is scheduled to expire after taxes payable in 2023. The proposed capital project levy authorization will raise approximately $315,355 for taxes payable in 2024, the first year it is to be levied, and would be authorized for ten years. The estimated total cost of the project to be funded over that time period is approximately $3,153,550. The additional revenue from the proposed capital project levy authorization will provide funds for the acquisition and betterment of school sites and facilities, the acquisition and replacement of school buses and vehicles, and the acquisition, installation, replacement, support and maintenance of software, software licenses, computers, improved technology equipment, networks, infrastructure, and the costs of technology related personnel and training. The project has received a positive review and comment from the commissioner of education.
Shall the capital project levy authorization proposed by the board of Independent School District No. 600 be approved?
