Proposition A would provide $86.6 million in funding for the city’s roadway infrastructure, traffic signals, and bike and pedestrian improvements. Proposition B allocates $42.2 million to expand or improve facilities, parks and trails.
At $30 million, Proposition C would allow construction of a training facility for fire, police and emergency management, which would be located on Cedar Park land. It would allow all public safety departments to train in one location, and it would house the emergency operations center for use during emergencies.
If the propositions are approved by voters, it is not expected to cause an increased tax rate for residents of Cedar Park. The city’s 20-year debt model keeps tax rates stable and interest costs reduced due to paying off debt in advance, putting Cedar Park in the position to issue this bond package without affecting the tax rate.
