Passage of Proposition No. 1 would allow the levy of $3,670,000 in property taxes within Auburn School District No. 408 for collection in 2015, the levy of $3,670,000 for collection in 2016, the levy of $3,665,000 for collection in 2017, the levy of $3,665,000 for collection in 2018, the levy of $3,665,000 for collection in 2019 and the levy of $3,665,000 for collection in 2020, to replace an expiring levy and enable the district to pay for construction, renovation, improvements and expansion of new and existing facilities, for technology improvements, and equipment and training to meet the current and future educational programs for its students, such levies to be collected for six years from 2015 through 2020, inclusive. In accordance with Resolution No. 1187 approving this proposition, these taxes would be deposited in the District’s Capital Projects Fund to pay for the acquisition, installation, and management of computer technology systems, facilities and projects, including enhancing infrastructure, acquiring hardware, licensing software, and implementing online applications and training for the District’s technology systems, facilities, or projects. If authorized by the voters and based on current assessed valuation information, estimated levy rates per $1,000 of assessed value would be $0.42 (2015 collection); $0.41 (2016 collection); $0.40 (2017 collection); $0.39 (2018 collection); $0.38 (2019 collection); $0.37 (2020 collection). The exact levy rate shall be adjusted based upon the actual assessed value of the property within the District at the time of the levy.
