Vague “Budget Planning” Session Could Hide Future Tax Hikes

📅 September 8, 2026

The board is holding a “Budget Planning” workshop without providing any supporting documents or specific proposals. This lack of transparency prevents taxpayers from seeing the assumptions and priorities that will lead to future property tax increases.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Georgetown ISD board. ‘Please publish all materials related to the ‘Budget Planning’ workshop item prior to the meeting so taxpayers can understand the basis for future tax and spending decisions.’

💰 Impact: Future Property Tax Increases

“Strategic Blueprint” Discussion May Signal Vague Consultant Spending

📅 September 8, 2026

The agenda includes a discussion on “Strategic Blueprint Checkpoints” with no attached plan or report. This type of vague initiative often precedes or involves expensive contracts with outside consultants for “strategic planning” that lack clear deliverables for taxpayers.

Response

ASK FOR THE PRICE TAG: Contact the Georgetown ISD board. ‘Regarding the ‘Strategic Blueprint,’ what is the total cost to taxpayers to date, which outside vendors are involved, and what are the specific, measurable outcomes for students?’

💰 Impact: Vague Consultant Contracts
