Arlington Bond Election and Early Voting ...

Early voting began Monday October 20th through October 31st.

The City of Arlington has 4 bond propositions on the ballot - a 5 year, $236 million program for roads, parks, fire facilities, and libraries - and the key thing to remember is that IT WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR TAXES. The city does a great job of managing its debt capacity so that a tax increase will never an option. (Yes, the ballot does say: "and the levying of a tax in payment therein. Which translates into the short story,... meaning that the current tax rate will remain the same, i.e. the City means no tax rate increase... contact me for further explanation).

A 19 member citizen's committee met every week from March through May to consider the proposed projects that amounted to over $400 million and ultimately reduced the project list down to the $236 million. So we appreciate their efforts and time, thank you.

For your information I have posted the link to the City of Arlington voters guide that list all the projects. They are all greatly needed and will only make Arlington better. Feel free to share this with your friends and encourage them to vote YES.

The final day to vote is Tuesday November 4th but early voting is more convenient to all.

The money for the new Central Downtown Library / City Council Chambers / Plaza will come from Certificates of Obligations, the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation (Natural Gas Money). The Arlington Library Foundation will be raising money in the community for interior furnishings.

Public Forum to be held 10/21/14 on AISD schools Corey, Moore, and Wood....

When: Tuesday October 21st starting at 5:30 pm.

Where: Mary Moore Elementary 5500 Park Springs Blvd, Arlington, TX 76017.

Details:

In September, a committee of parents and principals was formed to study all issues related to re-evaluating the boundaries for Corey, Moore, and Wood Elementary Schools.

The committee has researched the available options for a proposed boundary change to prepare for the Dual Language / Fine Arts Academy that will start at Corey Elementary in the fall of 2015. Templeton Demographics, the district's demographer, provided thee committee with draft boundaries as a starting point. The committee considered relevant data, including the following: student safety,; educational needs; future growth and school size; enrollment balance; feeder patterns for the elementary; junior high and high schools; and a desire to keep change to a minimum.

The proposal was presented to the Borad of Trustees at the Board's regular meeting Thursday, October 16, 2014. The proposal is detailed on the map below. The Board of Trustees is scheduled to take a final vote on the proposed boundary change November 6, 2014.

All parents and interested citizens are invited to attend the public forum. The majority of the forum's agenda will be allocated for audience questions and comments. Committee members and AISD administrators will also be present to hear your comments.

Note: The new Moore boundary adds the area NW of Andalusa Trail to I-20 and Hwy 287 as indicated in red lines. Wood is in Yellow with the addition being West of Kelly Perkins /Kelly Elliott to Green Oaks.

Arlington TX...The AISD Bond Package..... Vote early now or by May 10th....

Short summary video from ARBOR You Tube: Why you should vote YES for the AISD Bond

Early voting info: Where to vote early: or city water departments


Arlington voters need to Vote now or by May 10th for:
1) City Council.... 2) School Board .... 3) School Bond Election.

Early voting sample ballot info:

1 of 2: School Sample Ballot

2 of 2: City Sample Ballot



The most important issue on the ballot in my opinion is the AISD Bond Election which is about money and a PLAN to keep our schools competitive for our kids. .

1) Academics and fine arts. Renovation / upgrade of existing fine arts spaces at each high school. Another big bonus is installing real science labs in all elementary schools, installing dual academies on both ends of town and a new District wide Fine Arts Center, seating for 2500. For larger venues the plan is to use UTA's College Park Fine Arts Center which seats 6500.

2) District wide Career and Technical Center. Plus renovation of existing career / technical spaces at each high school. Serves all schools to advance the students who will not pursue college and better equip them for a trade after graduation.

3) Economic benefits. As a Realtor who services this area, not just Arlington, a key benefit is the school system having a system that is recognized for excellence fitting the needs of the students both college bound and technical bound. Also the value of your home is in a way tied to the school district, improvements made to the school district will affect your home value in a positive way.

4) Safety, Security, and Technology improvements that must be made in a proactive way will include a technology infrastructure, wireless enhancements, additional internet access, security cameras, audio visual equipment to mention a few.

And if you are 65 or over, this decision is a win-win. You get the benefits of helping kids succeed and increased demand for housing in the district holding up your property values, but pay nothing extra on your school taxes because they are frozen once you reach age 65 as long as you claim the exemption.

I'm voting YES and putting ALL our kids and our community's property values FIRST. For more info see:
AISD Web Site     and   Arlington First web site

Arlington - Water Conserving Plant Sale ...

This Saturday is our Water Conserving Plant Sale at the Home Depot on Six Flags Drive. The event is from 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. and a list of the plants available can be found here: Smart Scape 

I believe there will also be other Texas Smartscape plants that are not on the official list as they become available from the nurseries. When on the website, also check out the Texas SmartScape Digital Magazine as it provides some additional information on some of the plants available in an entertaining and humorous way.

There will be many vendors and information booths including Water Conservation, Storm Water, Master Composters and Master Gardeners. The atmosphere is like a “fair” and Home Depot will be having their monthly kids workshop, a clown, two bounce houses, a Do It Herself clinic, popcorn, lemonade stand, grilled veggies, kid temp tattoos and more. Consider bringing the entire family and pick up some new plants that will survive during drought conditions and look good too!
