Nederland Independent School District Proposition A: Ratify $0.928409 Tax Rate (VATRE)

What does this measure do?

Supports: Public Education Quality

Nederland ISD asks voters to approve its school property tax rate of about 93 cents per $100 of value, which raises day-to-day operating money by 15.3%, or about $3.4 million, over last year. Property owners in the district would pay that higher rate; the ballot calls it a tax increase.
