THE GLOBE-SENTINEL
ORCHARD FARM VOTERS TO DECIDE $23 MILLION SCHOOL BOND PROPOSITION

ST. CHARLES COUNTY, Mo. — Orchard Farm R-V School District voters will consider a $23 million general-obligation bond proposal Tuesday, November 3, covering school construction, renovations, equipment and improvements.
The district's Proposition T ballot language identifies a proposed construction-trades center and vocational-education facility among the potential uses, as well as refinancing certain leasehold obligations. The proposal would permit borrowing and issuing bonds for eligible school facilities.
The district estimates that approval would not increase its debt-service property-tax levy rate. Its published ballot language says the adjusted debt-service levy is expected to remain at $1 per $100 of assessed valuation.
A no vote would deny authorization for the proposed bond issuance. Residents in the district can read the full ballot language on Orchard Farm's official website before voting.
