Prince George's County Question I: Library Facilities Bonds
Source: elections.maryland.gov
What does this measure do?
Supports: Public Infrastructure
Opposes: Government Spending Reduction
Prince George's County could borrow up to $34 million to build, expand, and repair public library branches, including Hillcrest Heights, Langley Park, Oxon Hill, and Surratts-Clinton. County taxpayers would repay the loans with interest over many years; the question sets no new tax.
Proposed by: Prince George's County Council (CB-054-2026, County Executive and 5 Council Members)
The elected County Council passed this borrowing bill on June 22, 2026, at the County Executive's request. The county charter (the county's rulebook) says voters must approve this borrowing.
A YES vote means
The county can borrow up to $34 million to build, expand, and repair county library buildings, which county taxpayers repay with interest over time.
A NO vote means
The county cannot borrow this money for library buildings, so those projects would need other funding or wait.
