Proposition KIDS: Zero Tax Levy Increase Bond Issue
The Lakeland R-III School District is asking voters to consider a no tax increase bond levy of $2 million on the April 2, 2024 ballot, that will have zero impact on the current tax levy. Proposition KIDS will allow the district to address needs in several areas including:
-Safety and Security upgrades, including updating cameras and installing sensors.
-Baseball and softball field renovations, including lighting systems and scoreboards.
-HVAC replacement in Elementary classrooms.
-Repairs and improvements to existing facilities
-Upgrades to student transportation.
If approved, Lakeland R-III's debt service levy would remain unchanged at $.9367 per $100 AV.
