Vague ‘Safety Grant’ Could Hide Future Costs
📅 October 29, 2026
The board is discussing an update on a ‘Safety Grant’ for facilities under Item 3. Without the grant application or award documents being public, taxpayers cannot know if this ‘free money’ comes with long-term financial obligations or data-sharing requirements that they will be forced to pay for later.
Response

Contact the Hillsboro ISD administration before the meeting: ‘Regarding Item 3, the ‘Safety Grant,’ please publish the full grant application and award documents. Taxpayers deserve to know what strings are attached before the district accepts the funds.’
