Breaking it down
The bond package is broken down into two propositions requiring voters to answer with “for” or “against” on each proposition, according to agenda documents.
Propositions include:
- Proposition A: Funding for Primrose Park Phase 3 ($10.75 million), which will could include an amphitheater, additional parking, walking trails, an outdoor education pavilion, playground, food truck court, additional detention, restrooms, scoreboards and a maintenance building
- Proposition B: Funding for parks and facilities land acquisition ($2.75 million) for future city parks, sports complexes and facilities
An additional $250,000 per project has been included in the cost to account for bond issuance costs, according to agenda documents.
“We’ve talked about Primrose Park for years and we, even in recent years, talked about purchasing additional park land, which is important for a city and I think is important for Fulshear,” council member Joel Patterson said. “It’s my personal opinion that council should be and the city should be trying to issue bonds for things that are really necessary for the city to grow and for us to achieve the strategy and vision that we have.”
