Week #7 - Early Voting

EARLY VOTING Begins TODAY! 

Thank you for hanging in there with me as I share details about BISD’s 2022 Bond election each week.

Last week I shared with you about the ballot language and the state-mandated statement required on each proposition. Once again, this is not true for Birdville ISD.  The efficient management of BISD’s existing bond debt over the last ten years has allowed the District to refinance more than $142.2 million of its outstanding bonds at a lower interest rate, saving taxpayers $18.4 million in future interest costs. In addition, the District has also prepaid approximately $29 million of its bonds prior to scheduled maturity, saving an additional $20.2 million in future interest payments for taxpayers. This is how the District is able to present the $359.8 million bond plan to voters with no tax rate increase. 

Remember, the District is presenting the bond proposal as a package and asks voters to cast a vote on each of the three propositions. 

I want to remind you that every vote counts. YOUR vote counts.
