Round Rock ISD trustees call for $1B bond to appear on Nov. 5 ballot

Four propositions asking Round Rock ISD voters to approve just under $1 billion will appear on the Nov. 5 ballot, after trustees voted to order a bond election Aug. 15.

Trustees voted 5-2 to call the election, asking voters to approve up to $998,135,000 to fund capital improvements in the following areas:
Safety and security

Deferred maintenance of existing buildings
Technology replacements
Improvements to fine arts and athletics facilities in the district

Trustees, district staff and the RRISD's Citizens Bond Committee, chaired by Fabian Cuero and Lindsey Ledyard, narrowed an original $1 billion-$1.5 billion proposal to just under $1 billion in projects to address several areas of needed maintenance to capital assets within the district.
