🚨 Alert (LEVEL 10)
Board to Vote on 2026 Property Tax Rate
📅 2026-09-14
The board will vote to set the property tax rate for 2026 under item 5.D. The agenda does not state whether the proposed rate is the ‘no-new-revenue’ rate or a tax increase, hiding the potential impact on homeowner tax bills until the meeting itself.
Response

PACK THE ROOM: Show up Monday and demand the board adopt the no-new-revenue tax rate. Contact the Board: ‘Regarding Item 5.D, I urge you to vote for the no-new-revenue rate and oppose any increase to our property tax burden.’

💰 Impact: Higher Property Taxes
⚠️ Warning (LEVEL 7)
School Board Cancels November Trustee Election
📅 2026-09-14
The board is certifying that two trustee seats are ‘unopposed’ and canceling the election for those positions. This action, while legal, prevents voters from having a choice and entrenches incumbents, reducing accountability for spending and policy decisions.
Response

DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY: Contact the Board: ‘Canceling elections due to a lack of challengers is a sign of an unhealthy civic environment. What is the board doing to encourage public participation and ensure taxpayers have a choice in the future?’

💰 Impact: Reduced Voter Choice
