Staff Report.
The final recommendation from the Hays CISD Growth Impact Committee is for a $59.3 million bond package of 17 items, including a new middle school, security improvements at all campuses and technology upgrades.
Two items from the district administration’s priority list that didn’t make the committee’s cut were the second phase of buses and the roof replacement at Buda Elementary School.
Members of the Hays CISD Board of Trustees will hear the committee’s recommendation at the regular board meeting on Dec. 9. Should the board accept the committee’s recommendation, there will be public hearings in January.
The board will make a decision on the final bond package based on public input. Trustees may opt in February to call for an election, scheduled for May 10, 2014.
The bond would add about $100 per year to the average Hays CISD household valued at $132,000.
