This revenue will help ensure an accessible, affordable, quality education for students; maintain core academic classes in writing, math and science; prepare students for four-year universities; preserve workforce training for careers in nursing, engineering, and technology; fill critical teaching and other positions; and keep college libraries open. The parcel tax requires independent audits and a Citizens’ Oversight Committee, expires after eight years, and all revenue will be retained for local use to support core academic programming.
