Nixa School District Bond Measure (February 2012)
This measure was approved
- YES 3,193 (77.03%)
- NO 952 (22.97%)[1]
This measure sought to issue a bond in the amount of $9 million in order to pay for new facilities and renovations to current buildings in order to help with over crowding issues at the schools. Money will also be used to upgrade technology throughout the district as well as make upgrades to the football field. Officials noted that the bond will not raise the current property tax rate, just extend the current repayments.[2]
