SCHOOL DISTRICT BALLOT QUESTION 2 APPROVAL OF SCHOOL DISTRICT CAPITAL PROJECT LEVY AUTHORIZATION
The board of Independent School District No. 279 (Osseo Area Schools) has proposed a capital project levy authorization in the amount of 3.701% times the net tax capacity of the school district.

The estimated total cost of the projects to be funded over that time period is approximately $50,000,000.
The money raised by the capital project levy authorization will be used to provide funds for the purchase, installation, and maintenance of software and technology for school instruction.
The projects to be funded have received a positive review and comment from the Commissioner of Education. Shall the capital project levy proposed by the board of Independent School District No. 279 be approved?
