As we approach the April 7 election, we want to share important information regarding a no-tax-increase bond that will appear on the ballot for the Community R-VI School District.
Our district has several facility needs that must be addressed over the next few years. This bond is a critical step in ensuring we can responsibly meet those needs while maintaining our current tax rate.
There are five priority areas included in this proposal:
1. ADA-Compliant Playground Improvements
Our current playground is not ADA-compliant and must be updated to meet accessibility requirements. This project would include resurfacing the playground with an accessible surface and purchasing some new equipment to ensure all students can safely participate.
2. HVAC System Replacement
Several of our HVAC units are aging and becoming less reliable and less efficient. This bond would allow us to replace the oldest units as part of a planned rotational replacement schedule to improve efficiency and reduce long-term maintenance costs.
3. Ag Classroom Entryway Drainage Repair
The entryway near the Ag Classroom is at a negative grade, allowing water to enter the building during heavy rainfall. This has already caused interior damage. The project would correct the grading issue and repair the affected interior areas.
4. Outdoor Freezer Replacement
Our outdoor freezer needs to be replaced, and the surrounding concrete pad requires repair to ensure proper support and long-term functionality.
5. Circle Drive and Sidewalk Improvements
The circle drive is deteriorating and requires resurfacing and new curbing. This project would also address aging sidewalks and entryways around the building to improve safety and accessibility.
The district’s current bond repayment levy is $0.55 per $100 of assessed valuation.
If this bond measure passes, the tax rate will remain at $0.55.
If the bond measure does not pass, the tax rate will still remain at $0.55.
This proposal does not create any new taxes.
In the coming weeks, we will highlight each of these projects. We appreciate your thoughtful consideration of these important improvements for our district.
We will host a public forum and playground tour on March 25 at 6:30 p.m. at the school. This will be an opportunity to ask questions and see firsthand some of the needs described above.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Mr. Harter at charter@cr6.net or call the school at 855-708-7567.
