Summary
The Clark County School District Board of Trustees held a public hearing and voted 6-0 to authorize up to $50 million in medium‑term obligations to finance school facilities, transportation and technology purchases.
The Clark County School District Board of Trustees voted 6-0 on July 10 to approve a 2025 medium‑term bond authorization allowing the district to issue up to $50,000,000 in obligations to finance acquisition, improvement and equipping of school facilities, including transportation vehicles and technology equipment.
The item opened as a public hearing that had been published on June 27, 2025. Diane Bartholomew, the district’s interim chief financial officer, told the board the bond authorization is intended to finance buses, the district “white fleet,” and possibly some technology equipment and that the hearing’s purpose was to inform the public and allow comment. No members of the public addressed the trustees on the bond item.
Trustee Esparza moved approval; Trustee Cavazos seconded. The motion passed 6-0. Under the approved resolution the superintendent or interim CFO will be authorized to specify final terms and the board president and clerk will sign necessary documents when the district proceeds to sale.
The authorization caps the total medium‑term obligations at $50 million and is intended to cover some combination of vehicle and facilities costs; the precise allocation and timing of any sale and the terms of issuance were not specified during the meeting.
Next steps identified in the meeting record: staff will return with bond terms and sale documents for execution, and board officers will sign final documents when presented.
