PRETTY PRAIRIE, Kan. — Patrons in the Pretty Prairie USD 311 school district will vote on a new bond issue Sept. 6.
A resolution has been passed by the board on a $10.4 million proposal that will be paid out over 20 years.
The proposal includes a number of needed high-end maintenance items such as new windows, weather proofing the brick exterior and new roofs for all three school buildings, plus repairs to the middle school roof and ceiling over the auditorium.
It also includes a major renovation to the middle school gymnasium including new locker rooms, a concession area and restrooms. If approved, the middle school gym would become the main athletic facility for the schools.
The tax increase would amount to $14 per month on a $50,000 home; $28 per month for a $100,000 home and $42 per month for a $150,000 home.
