In plain language
Measure N is a school bond for Sylvan Union School District. A YES vote lets the district borrow $70 million. The money would build STEM and multipurpose classrooms. It would also improve campus and classroom security. It would fix student restrooms and plumbing too. It would upgrade drop-off, parking, shade, and play areas. It requires audits and independent oversight, and all money stays local. A NO vote means the district does not get this money. These projects would not happen through this bond.
Fiscal impact
The bond would cost property owners $25 per $100,000 of assessed value each year. It would raise about $5,045,000 each year while the bonds are owed.
