This bill relates to the issuance of bonds by a school district by limiting the amount offered for sale for certain projects. Under the bill, for projects for which a proposition to issue such bonds was approved at an election held after July 1, 2025, the total amount of bonds issued for the project under any provision of law shall not exceed an amount equal to percent of the total cost of the project. The remaining costs of the project shall be funded from sources other than from the sale of bonds.
