Stadium Renovations - 2008, $10,206,567

Summary of Costs � Elementary Schools $5,373,944 � Middle Schools $56,868,232 � High School $45,989,970 � Other Facilities $11,149,051 � Buses $2,703,171 � Bond Sale Fees $915,633 Bond Election Total $123M

Estimated Tax Impact � Recent legislative action required all Texas school districts to lower their maintenance and operations (M&O) tax rate. � PN-G ISD lowered its rate by 13 cents last year and will lower it by an additional 33 cents this year. � Because the maximum increase in the tax rate related to this $123M bond election is projected to be 28 cents, it is anticipated that there will be a decrease in the total tax rate. Citizens 65 years and older and disabled citizens who have their homestead rate frozen will not see an increase in their tax rate as a result of this bond proposal.

Estimated Tax Impact Tax levy on $100,000 home Year M&O I&S Total Tax Annual Monthly 2004-05 1.50 .127792 1.627792 $1058.06 $88.17 2005-06 1.50 .119 1.619 $1052.35 $87.70 2006-07 current 1.37 .1083 1.4783 $960.90 $80.08 2007-08 1.04 .1399 1.1799 $766.94 $63.91 2008-09 1.04 .3609 $ 910.59 $75.88 1.4009 Only a portion of your tax rate relates to bonds. Each year the Board of Trustees sets a tax rate in two parts. The maintenance and operations (M&O) is used to cover operating costs (salaries, supplies, equipment, insurance, utilities, etc.), while the debt service (I&S) rate pays off principal and interest due on bonds.
