Bond 2016

New Construction

 

 

  • K-12 Consolidated Campus
  • Science Labs
  • Metal Shop
  • Wood Shop
  • Competition Gym
  • New building capacity will be for 630 students
   Existing Facilities Condition

 

  • The average age of district facilities is 60 years and do not comply with current building codes.
  • The main campus buildings were built prior to modern air conditioning and lack necessary insulation and building envelope for efficient heating and cooling.
  • The electrical infrastructure is stretched beyond its capacity to support current education technology.
  • 95% of the A/C systems are 20 + years old.
  • None of the District’s facilities have fire sprinkler systems needed for life safety under current code.
  • Much of the District’s facilities contain materials that contain asbestos.  Any significant upgrade or remodel will, most likely, require asbestos removal.
Existing Facility Improvements

 

 

  • Partial Renovation of Old High School into administrative space
  • Renovation of Current Gym to be used as a Secondary Gym which will attract more tournaments and events to CCAISD facilities.

 

 

  


TOTAL PROPOSED BOND: $30 million

 

OUR TAX DOLLARS STAY HERE

Taxes for school bonds, also known as “interest and sinking” revenues, are not subject to recapture by the State unlike the percentage that the State takes from the district’s general fund. As such, 100% of the proceeds from taxes to pay off the bond would stay in CCAISD.

RECAPTURE SAVINGS

By paying for $30 million in capital expenditures from proceeds of the bond issue, CCAISD will save appx. $ 25.7 million in recapture payments (funds that would otherwise be paid to the State or other districts).

ESTIMATED TAX IMPACT

 

Home Value   Monthly   Annually
$50K   $9   $113
$75K   $19   $225
$100K   $28   $338
 Based on successful passage of bond
*Tax rates includes state homestead exemption


IMPACT ON SENIOR CITIZENS' PROPERTY TAXES

Taxpayers 65 and older will not see an increase in their school taxes for residential homestead values.
