Bond Measure Projects (Measure 20-183)

Voters in the Eugene School District will decide on May 17 whether to maintain the current property tax rate for schools in order to:

• Provide better instructional facilities for students
• Support instruction by shifting some building repair costs out of the district’s operating budget

By law, bond money can only be spent on capital facilities (such as buildings, athletic fields and parking lots), equipment and technology. It cannot be used to pay for teachers, school days or school programs.

The bond measure would provide $70 million to maintain and improve basic building systems and student learning and activity areas:
