District news
Board sends $775 million bond to the Nov. 3 ballot
What happened
The Aug. 5 agenda asked the board to approve ballot language for a District 11 bond measure to go on the Nov. 3, 2026 ballot with El Paso County. At the meeting, staff said the total bond allocation is $775 million.
Why it matters to families
Voters, not the board, decide a bond. If approved, property taxes in the district rise to repay it, and the money would go to school buildings and other projects.
The evidence
The agenda describes Resolution 2027-02 as setting the ballot question for the 2026 bond. The $775 million figure is from the meeting recording (auto-captions) and the county ballot listing, not the agenda text.
