Godfrey-Lee
3-mill, 10-year sinking fund: Yes 126, No 73
Voters passed a sinking fund which will put new Chromebooks in classrooms, update other technology and fund facility maintenance and improvements.
“On behalf of the Godfrey-Lee Board of Education, I thank our community for their support and investment in our school district,” said Superintendent Kevin Polston. “Once again the Godfrey-Lee community has demonstrated their tremendous support for our public schools. The sinking fund approval will make Godfrey-Lee Public Schools safer, more secure, and connected with technology upgrades, throughout the district.”
Funds will become available to the district in 2019 after the summer tax collection and will provide a sustainable source of funding for technology and facilities for 10 years.
The fund will generate about $300,000 annually. It replace the current 1.9976-mill sinking fund, which expires this year.
