Survey
Results:
The formulation of this
project was supported by a survey of registered voters in the USD #327
district. Below are the results
concerning the proposals in the bond.
Each project with the exception of the EJSHS front entrance received more
support than opposition. The EJSHS front
entrance was included to address security concerns. The chart indicates the percentage breakdown per project.
Cost of the Project:
$4.8 Million
Tax Impact:
Using conservative
estimates on prices, valuation, and interest rates, it is estimated that this
proposed project will raise the district mill levy 6.5 mills. The monthly impact on residence, business,
and agricultural property are estimated below.
The amount is figured based on a 20 year bond, 3.5% interest rate, 26%
state aid, and a frozen valuation for 5 years with estimated 1% growth after
(we have averaged about 3% growth in valuation over the last ten years).
