Voters in the West Ada School District are being asked to approve not one, but two additional funding measures in March.
According to the Idaho Statesman, the Board unanimously passed resolutions calling for both a bond and a levy election on March 13th…the bond would need a two thirds majority to pass, while the levy would need a simple majority.
The bond would be for 95-million, 60-million of which would go to building new schools, and 32-million for interest, and the 28-million dollar levy would supplement the regular District budgets for the next two years.
Because of anticipated growth and increased property values, the levy rate would remain at 377-dollars per 100-thousand in value.
West Ada is the state’s largest school district.
