Another bond vote in South Coffeyville is just over a month away.
After the last bond attempt failed by one vote, the board approved a modified bond issue that will cover improvements district-wide, including roof and window repairs and HVAC, with the addition of some safety upgrades. Superintendent Daryl Pruter says the hope is to be able to add storm shelters and increase school security.
If the bond passes, the average homeowner with a market-value property worth $68,000 would see a projected monthly increase of $6.29 over the 10-year bond. Pruter says there is a very small difference in the cost between the last bond attempt and this one.
The bond issue will be decided on November 18th in conjunction with the general election.
