Early voting will run Oct. 18-29 for the Nov. 2 general election. The last day to register to vote in the Nov. 2 election was Oct. 4. Here are five things Comal ISD voters should know before heading to the polls.

1. What is on the ballot

Voters will consider four CISD bond propositions and a tax ratification measure on the Nov. 2 ballot. CISD trustees called the election in August. The bond includes school construction, athletics facility improvements, technology upgrades and stadium improvements.

The propositions are as follows:

  • Proposition A (voter approval tax ratification election): Ratifying the ad valorem tax rate of $1.2920 in Comal ISD for the current year, a rate that will result in an increase of 14.7% in the maintenance and operations tax revenue for the district for the current year as compared to the preceding year, which is an additional $26.38 million. If passed, the new maintenance and operations tax rate would increase to $0.9420 per $100 valuation.

  • Proposition B: The issuance of an amount not to exceed $411.29 million school building bonds for the construction, renovation, acquisition, and equipment of school buildings. This is a property tax increase.

  • Proposition C: The issuance of an amount not to exceed $61.49 million school bonds for the construction, renovation, acquisition and equipment of certain recreational facilities in the district. This is a property tax increase.

  • Proposition D: The issuance of an amount not to exceed $20.4 million school bonds for the construction, renovation, acquisition and equipment of stadiums with seating capacity of more than 1,000 spectators. This is a property tax increase.

  • Proposition E: The issuance of an amount not to exceed $34.54 million school bonds for the acquisition of technology equipment. This is a property tax increase.
