Q: What is a General Obligation Bond?
A: General Obligation Bonds - Are bonds that are payable from ad valorem (property) taxes levied against all taxable property located within the School District, excepting homestead and other lawful exemptions. General Obligation Bonds are considered extremely safe investments and therefore can be issued at lower interest rates than many other types of bonds.
On January 28, 2020, our Board of Education approved a resolution to hold a bond election Tuesday, April 7, 2020. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Board of Education moved the election date to June 30, 2020.
If the bond passes, millage rates will remain the same. This is NOT a property tax increase. The total bond amount is $8,840,000. Each school would receive improvements on this bond. #mdpurpose
