Has the district really been a good steward of your tax dollars as it claims?
Here's a list of every bond1 that the district has authorized. As you can see, some are based on bonds you authorized in a measure. Others are the district issuing bonds to cover a short-fall in its budget. Whether it's a special additional tax that you voted for or not, it's still costing you money every time a bond is issued. All the advisors, brokers, lawyers take their cut and the wealthy investors are paid the interest.
