Board amends tax break agreements with wind and renewable energy companies
What happened
In spring 2026 the board held public hearings and approved amendments to two tax value limitation agreements under the old Chapter 313 law: with Stetson Renewables Holdings on April 22 and with Willow Springs Windfarm on May 19. It charged a $5,000 fee to cover consultant costs on the Stetson amendment. On May 19 it also approved a JETI agreement with the law firm Leon Alcala Morse & Reynolds.
Why it matters to families
These agreements limit how much of the energy projects' value the school district can tax for operations. They affect district revenue for years.
