The Clear Creek ISD board of trustees discussed the potential sale of the remaining $30 million in authorized bonds from the 2017 $487 million bond for the purpose of addressing critical infrastructure needs.
The board was previously presented with critical facility, technology and transportation infrastructure needs at an Aug. 20 work session. The highest-priority items that could cause a disruption to district or campus operations over the next 18 months were isolated and presented to the board for consideration.
Chief Financial Officer Alice Benzaia said funding options for the district’s infrastructure needs are very limited, indicating the district’s contingency funds are already being stretched to cover a deficit in this year’s budget plan.
Trustee Scott Bowen said he normally votes against bond projects that were not included in the bond’s proposal that was approved by the community in that bond election.
