In plain language
Measure K is a school bond for Modesto City High School District. A YES vote lets the district borrow $250,000,000. The money would upgrade classrooms and labs for math, science, and writing instruction. It would also update career training facilities. It would repair deteriorating roofs, plumbing, and heating and cooling systems. A NO vote means the district cannot borrow this money for these projects. The current tax rate would continue with no increase. Funds would be locally controlled with independent oversight.
Fiscal impact
The bond keeps the current tax rate of $24 per $100,000 of assessed value. That is no increase. It would raise about $14,000,000 each year while the bonds are owed.
