Learn about Prop RP-1 ballot issue

In addition to electing school board members on April 4, voters in the Ray-Pec School District will also consider a tax rate transfer issue.

The ballot issue, called Proposition RP-1, asks voters to authorize the district to transfer 50 cents from the Debt Service Fund to the Operation Fund. The proposed tax rate transfer will be phased in over a three-year period, and the overall tax rate is expected to remain at its current rate. This means that the rate is not projected to increase, resulting in a zero net impact to property owners.

If approved, all of the revenue produced by the tax rate transfer will be used for compensation and benefits to recruit and retain staff.
