To rebuild the gymnasium and build new community swimming pool facilities at local high schools; make safety and security improvements; upgrade, renovate, and modernize classrooms, restrooms, and school facilities, for vocational/career training and performing arts; shall Santa Paula Unified School District’s measure issuing $48,600,000 of bonds at legal rates, estimated annual levies of $27.98 per $100,000 assessed value (averaging $2,938,000), be adopted, with annual audits, independent citizens’ oversight, and NO money for teacher/administrator salaries?
In plain language
Measure C is a school bond for Santa Paula Unified School District. A YES vote lets the district borrow $48.6 million. The money would rebuild a gym and build a new pool at local high schools. It would also improve safety and security. It would upgrade classrooms, restrooms, and job-training and arts rooms. None of the money can pay teacher or administrator salaries. The district must do yearly audits. Citizens must also watch how the money is spent. A NO vote means the district does not get this money.
Fiscal impact
The bond would cost property owners about $27.98 per $100,000 of assessed value each year, averaging about $2,938,000 annually.
