Background

According to the Yavapai County School Superintendent's voter information pamphlet, the Humboldt Unified Governing Board called this $79.6 million bond election. The district says the amount was structured to avoid a tax rate increase.

The district says in the pamphlet that some of its capital projects, though approved by the state School Facilities Division, have gone unfunded for more than four years. It lists HVAC, plumbing and roofing, safety and security, buses, major repairs, and parking lot and infrastructure repairs.

The pamphlet estimates the cost at $126.00 a year for 24 years, or $3,024.00 in total, for a home valued by the County Assessor at $250,000.

The pamphlet contains arguments for the bond and notes that no arguments against were submitted.

Put on the ballot by Humboldt Unified School District No. 22 Governing Board (election call; date not stated in the county pamphlet).
