Public commenter urges WISD to drop performing-arts plan to limit tax increase
Summary
A community member asked trustees to remove the performing-arts component from the proposed bond to reduce tax impacts and urged proceeding with a May 2025 bond election.
During the public forum, Craig Fore thanked trustees for their service, described his work with the Facility Task Force and urged the board to remove the performing-arts component from the bond package to limit tax increases to residents. He concluded by encouraging the board to move forward with the bond election.
Fore framed his suggestion around community concern about potential tax increases tied to the proposed projects; trustees heard the comment as part of public engagement on the Task Force recommendation but did not take action on the suggestion at the meeting.
