SCHOOL DISTRICT QUESTION 2 (ISD #197)
Renewal of Expiring Capital Project Levy Authorization for Technology
The school board of Independent School District No. 197 (West St. Paul-Mendota
Heights-Eagan Area Schools) has proposed a capital project levy authorization of
2.198107% times the net tax capacity of the school district. This authorization
would renew the school district’s existing capital project levy authorization for
technology which is scheduled to expire after taxes payable in 2024. The revenue
from the proposed capital project levy authorization will continue to fund student
and staff devices, internet access and fiber connectivity, telecommunications,
technology infrastructure, software licenses, and to pay the costs of technology
personnel and training. The proposed capital project levy authorization will raise
approximately $2,365,440 for taxes payable in 2025, the first year it is to be levied,
and would be authorized for ten years. The estimated total cost of the projects to be
funded over that time period is approximately $23,654,400.
Shall the capital project levy authorization proposed by the
school board of Independent School District No. 197 be
approved?
BY VOTING "YES" ON THIS BALLOT QUESTION,
YOU ARE VOTING TO RENEW AN EXISTING
CAPITAL PROJECTS REFERENDUM THAT IS
SCHEDULED TO EXPIRE.
