Thank you Wichita - Local School Bond Passes !!

What does this mean for Peterson?  Peterson is slated to receive a new addition that will include four general classrooms and restrooms and a new multipurpose room designed as a FEMA shelter.  Peterson also will receive general building upgrades including replacement of windows and doors, and improvement of the heating and air conditioning systems, technology, lighting/electrical, and storage space.    

For homeowners, the bond issue would add $42.55 in taxes per year on a $100,000 home or $3.55 per month. An investment of less than $1 per week will result in a $370 million pay out to support Wichita children.

Under Kansas law, Wichita taxpayers contribute tax dollars each year to help support school districts throughout the state that have passed bond issues. This bond issue plan will allow Wichitans to benefit from this law because the state will pay 25 percent of the total cost of the bond issue — $92.5 million plus corresponding interest.
