District continues exploring a possible $750 million facilities bond

What happened

After reviewing voter polling, the board directed staff to keep exploring a possible November 2026 bond rather than placing a measure on the ballot at this meeting.

Why it matters to families

If the board later places and voters approve the measure, property owners would repay substantial borrowing for school construction and modernization. For now, the amount and tax estimate were polling concepts, not an adopted ballot measure.

The evidence

The poll tested a $750 million bond at about $56 per $100,000 of assessed value. Initial support was just below the 55% passage threshold and rose after respondents heard informational messages; the consultant said there was a path to passage if voters understood facility needs. Staff said a later resolution would be required to call an election and include a project list and tax-rate statement.
