Burkburnett ISD Bond FAQs

Q: The ballot says “This is a property tax increase”, but the district is saying the new tax rate will actually be below the current level. How so?

A: In 2019, a new law for school districts was imposed in Education Code 45.003(b-1), which adds an additional sentence to the ballot proposition: "THIS IS A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE" The Texas Attorney General said this statement cannot be modified. Fact: Should both propositions pass, the District will be able to levy a tax rate below the current tax rate.
