El Dorado: Board of Education approves Long Range Facility Plan Phase II

The USD 490 Board of Education approved recommendation to move forward with Phase II of the district’s Long Range Facility Plan. A May 2016 mail ballot will be used to ask for voter approval of a new bond issue to build two new PreK-fifth grade elementary schools. The bond would be capped at $36 million and would cost the owner of a $100,000 home about $7 per month in property taxes.
