Information shown below: Summary | | ||||
To maintain quality educational programs and classroom instruction, to prevent significant increases in class size, to avoid reductions in teaching positions, to attract and retain the best teachers and employees, and to support educational programs that enhance student achievement, shall the Lowell Joint School District be authorized to levy a special tax of $95 on each parcel of land within the District each year for eight years with an exemption opportunity for seniors?
On March 8, 2005, a school district election will be held and a school district measure, called Measure B, will be on the ballot. Measure B would enact a parcel tax of up to $95 per parcel per year. The Lowell Joint School District Board of Trustees also included two protections in Measure B. First, the $95 per year is a maximum, they will make the decision each year as to the actual amount necessary to sustain the district's educational program. And, second our parcel owners who are 65 or over will have the option each year to exempt their parcel from the tax. If you would like more information regarding Measure B or would like to register to vote, please contact your school PTA president, school principal, or stop by your local school. Thank you.
