Information shown below: Impartial Analysis |

To repair all of the District’s aging schools, and qualify for State matching funds, shall the Garvey School District issue $15 million of bonds, at legal rates, to replace deteriorating roofs, acquire school facilities, upgrade classroom electrical wiring to accommodate modern computer technology, improve student safety by replacing worn plumbing, heating, ventilation and electrical systems and installing security fencing, outdoor lighting and classroom intercom and fire alarm systems, and renovate bathrooms to current standards?

Impartial Analysis from the County Counsel
Approval of Measure G would authorize the Garvey School District to issue up to $15,000,000 in general obligation bonds.

Funds received from the sale of the bonds would be used for the acquisition and improvement of real property, including replacing roofs, upgrading classroom electrical wiring to accommodate computer technology, replacing plumbing, heating, ventilation and electrical systems, installing security fencing, outdoor lighting and classroom intercom and alarm systems, and renovating bathrooms.

The bonds would be issued and sold at an interest rate not to exceed the maximum rate allowed by law, and would be repaid by a property tax levied upon real property located within the District over a period not to exceed forty (40) years.

This measure requires a two– thirds (2/3) vote for passage.

NOTICE TO VOTERS: Approval of Measure G does not guarantee that the proposed project or projects in the Garvey School District that are the subject of bonds under Measure G will be funded beyond the local revenues generated by Measure G. The school district's proposal for the project or projects may assume the receipt of matching state funds, which could be subject to appropriation by the Legislature or approval of a statewide bond measure.
