In plain language
A VoterDecoder summary of the official measure text.
Frederick Ballot Issue 2E would let the town borrow up to $26 million through general obligation bonds, with a maximum repayment cost of up to $57 million, for street and transportation projects. The borrowing depends on voters also approving the one percent sales and use tax increase in a separate question. A YES vote approves the debt. A NO vote means the bonds are not issued.
