      • DSISD's $132 million May 2018 Bond, Proposition A, is the largest and most expensive in our School District's history!

        "Dripping Springs voters in May will decide on a $132 million school bond package, the largest in the district’s history."
        -Austin American Statesman: February 13, 2018

      • DSISD admits that our property taxes will continue to go up, even though our property tax rate should not increase with this bond!

        "'[No tax rate increase] doesn't mean that people's taxes don't go up as appraisals go up,' said [Dripping Springs ISD Superintendent Bruce] Gearing. 'Appraisal values have been rising rapidly in our district over the last several years and they will continue to rise rapidly I think for the next several years if the projections are the same. So that creates more tax burden for our taxpayers even though the tax rate is remaining the same.'"
        -KXAN: April 17, 2018

      • Don't Believe Us?
        Listen to DSISD Superintendent Bruce Gearing:

        "[This Bond plus rising appraisal values] creates more tax burden for our taxpayers even though the tax rate is remaining the same."

        -KXAN: April 17, 2018
