Heads up, taxpayers and parents: We’ve audited the upcoming SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD agenda. There are 1 items targeting parental consent and taxpayer funds that need your immediate attention before the gavel falls.

ALERT (LEVEL 4)

District Seeks 3-Year Vehicle Lease Without Voter Approval

📅 Scheduled Action

The board will vote on authorizing the Superintendent to enter a 36-month lease for two vehicles, costing taxpayers up to $28,800. Multi-year leases are a form of debt that commits future funds without going through the voter-approved bond process.

Response

Contact the Springlake-Earth ISD board (see official agenda for contact info): ‘Regarding the 36-month vehicle lease, why is the district taking on multi-year debt instead of making this purchase through the standard, transparent budget process?’

💰 Impact: $28,800 (3-Year Lease)
