Two years after voters said yes to a tax increase to finance a then-record $720 million mobility bond, Austinites in November will again be asked to consider another increase to fund the high-cost, high-priority projects wrapped into a new $925 million bond proposal. Voters will say yay or nay to seven separate propositions—essentially buckets of specific project areas. City officials have touted a $250 million investment in affordable housing—the largest public investment in affordable housing in Austin’s history—as the marquee item. The propositions each look to address various city issues by financing crucial projects. From addressing the housing crisis to bringing parks to deficient areas to stabilizing flood zones and performing overdue maintenance to Austin’s cultural centers and pools system, the bond proposal is an eclectic package aimed where Austin hurts most. Voter approval of all seven propositions comes at a cost—a roughly 2-cent property tax rate increase per $100 of valuation for the next 20 years. The median homeowner with a home valued at $332,366 can expect to pay roughly an additional $5.55 per month, or just over $66 per year, during that time.
