📍 Drive to MCMULLEN COUNTY ISD Office   📅 Wednesday, October 28, 2026 to Calendar
📄 View Official Agenda
Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming MCMULLEN COUNTY ISD agenda and found 2 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 7)
Secret Land Deal on the Table
📅 October 28, 2026
The board will meet in a closed-door ‘Executive Session’ to discuss purchasing real estate. While some discussion is allowed in private, this moves a potentially major financial decision out of public view until the last minute, limiting taxpayer input.
Response

DEMAND TRANSPARENCY: Contact the board (see the Official Agenda link) and insist that all details of the proposed land purchase under Item VI.B.1—including location, price, and purpose—be made public before any vote is taken in open session. Taxpayers should not be surprised by major land deals.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed Land Purchase
WATCH (LEVEL 5)
Vague ‘Construction’ Item Hides Potential Spending
📅 October 28, 2026
The agenda lists an item for ‘Construction’ with no details, cost, or scope provided. This lack of transparency prevents taxpayers from knowing what the board is considering spending their money on before the meeting.
Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the District Office (see the Official Agenda link) and ask for the specifics on Agenda Item V.D, ‘Construction.’ Taxpayers deserve to know the scope and potential cost of any project before the board discusses it.

💰 Impact: Undisclosed
