Capital Projects Levy Approved By Voters

The Capital Projects Levy on the Nov 5 ballot, asking for $700,000 per year for technology related expenses was approved by voters on November 5, 2024! Click here to learn more and hear from Superintendent, Dr. Carly Baker.

Because of how the capital projects levy for technology is structured and how taxes are calculated, we have tried to minimize the impact to local homeowners. If the new capital project levy is approved, district homeowners will see a slight increase in their annual property taxes. The owners of a house valued at $150,000 will pay an additional $6 per month or $72 per year for 10 years.

This information was prepared by Ehlers Public Finance Advisors. The amounts in the table are based on school district taxes for the proposed capital project levy or operating referendum only, and do no include tax levies for other purposes. Tax increases shown above are gross increases, not including the impact of the state Homestead Credit Refund (*Circuit Breaker*) program. Owners of homestead property may qualify for a refund, based on their income and total property taxes. This would change the net tax for those property owners.
