SCHOOL DISTRICT QUESTION 1 (ISD #1)
School District Question 1
Approval of Capital Project Levy Authorization
The board of Independent School District No. 1 (Aitkin Public Schools) has proposed a capital project levy authorization of 4.609% times the net tax capacity of the school district. The additional revenue from the proposed capital project levy authorization will provide funds for the acquisition, installation, replacement, support and maintenance of software, software licenses, computers, improved technology equipment, networks, infrastructure, the costs of technology related personnel and training, the purchase and replacement of school buses and school-related transportation vehicles, and deferred maintenance and renovation projects at school district sites and facilities. The proposed capital project levy authorization will raise approximately $900,000 for taxes payable in 2022, the first year it is to be levied, and would be authorized for ten years. The estimated total cost of the projects to be funded over that time period is approximately $9,000,000. The projects to be funded have received a positive review and comment from the Commissioner of Education.
Shall the capital project levy authorization proposed by the board of Independent School District No. 1 be approved?
