Question 1 totals $62.5 million and does not require a mill levy increase. Because the district is paying off an existing bond six years early, a successful Question 1 would continue the current mill rate and roll it into a new bond to fund these projects. Adjustments to the local option budget also help create room to cover these costs while maintaining the existing mill rate.
Question 2 totals $27 million and would require a 4.75 mill increase. For the median McPherson homeowner, with a $200,000 home, this is estimated at about $9.10 per month.
The goal is clear: protect what we have, plan responsibly, and continue investing in strong schools that inspire students.
