Are you sure you want vote to support this extravagant measure? It has no accountability.
This campaign was designed by a member of the school bonds cartel. We figured out just the right words to get you to you to open up your checkbook.
We'd also like to introduce you to our partners -- bond lawyers, brokers, wealthy investors, architects, management firms, construction companies, and trade unions. We all stand to make a ton of money on these bonds. Our profits come right off the top, before a penny is actually spent on improving the facilities.
We're not just doing it for the money. We like to show off our work in Architectural Digest and other places where the rich and famous congregate.
Remember, we've taken a lot of risk. We gave money to get your governing board members elected, so they'd be sure to remember us when we came around for a hand-out later.
It's just business-as-usual, here in sunny Corruptifornia.
Please don't read the fine print. That's just put in by the lawyers to make what we're going to do to for you legal.

Measure S – Oak Park Unified School District
Impartial Analysis by County Counsel*
Measure S was placed on the ballot by the Governing Board ("Board") of the Oak Park Unified School District ("District"). Under the state Constitution, school districts may issue general obligation bonds only if approved by 55% (or more) of the voters of the District. Such a "Yes" vote on Measure S would permit the Board to issue bonds ("Bonds") in an amount not to exceed $60,000,000 for construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, and replacement of District school facilities, as more fully described in the Project List set forth in Measure S.
If Bonds are issued, proceeds may be used only for Measure S's stated purposes, which include: upgrading and constructing classrooms, labs, facilities, and computer systems; repairing or replacing roofs, plumbing, heating, electrical, and air conditioning systems; upgrading libraries; providing facilities and equipment needed to support instruction in music and arts; replacing aging portables with new classrooms; improving safety and security systems, including lighting, cameras, and emergency communication systems; improving pick-up and drop-off zones and parking lots; upgrading irrigation and drainage systems, etc. Measure S also provides that funds may be used for acquisition of instructional, maintenance, and operational equipment; payment of preparation costs for facility planning studies, assessment reviews, master plan updates, environmental studies, and the like (as detailed in Measure S's Project List).
Under the terms of Measure S, the District Board must establish an independent citizens' oversight committee to ensure that bond proceeds are properly expended for items in the Bond Project List. In addition, the Board must conduct annual performance and financial audits. Measure S further provides that bond proceeds cannot be used for teacher or administrator salaries or other school operating expenses. District officials must submit annual reports to the Board stating the amount of bond proceeds received and expended in that year and the status of any project funded or to be funded from bond proceeds.
Principal and interest on the Bonds will be payable from the proceeds of tax levies made upon the taxable property in the District. These taxes would be in addition to the normal real property taxes levied on taxpayers in the District. The amount of the increased taxes each year will depend upon the amount needed to pay the principal and interest on the Bonds. The Tax Rate Statement for Measure S in the sample ballot pamphlet reflects the District's best estimates, based upon currently available data and projections, of the property tax rates required to service the Bonds. The District estimates that the tax rate that will be necessary to fund this bond issue is $60.00 for every $100,000 of assessed valuation. The tax rate in any given year may not exceed $60.00 for every $100,000 of assessed valuation.
Approval of Measure S does not guarantee that the District projects specified will be funded beyond the local revenues generated by Measure S. The District's proposal for projects may assume the receipt of matching state funds, which could be subject to appropriation by the Legislature or approval of a statewide bond measure.
* Section 9500 of the California Elections Code requires the County Counsel to prepare an Impartial Analysis for each school measure appearing on the ballot.

Argument in Favor of Measure S
VOTE YES on Measure S because Oak Park Unified School District schools have educated generations of children, yet our schools are aging and need repairs and upgrades. Academic standards are rising and our community increasingly competes in a global economy. We must continue to invest in our local schools.
Measure S will protect and improve the outstanding quality of education that OPUSD provides, without raising tax rates.
Measure S authorizes a prudent, responsible plan to upgrade OPUSD school facilities and help retain the very best teachers and staff in high quality facilities to give a 21st century education.
Measure S will:
ALL Measure S funds stay local, benefitting ONLY Oak Park schools. The State cannot take this funding away. Measure S also qualifies our community to receive State matching funds when available.
Taxpayer protections are REQUIRED. Measure S is for school facility repairs, upgrades, technology and equipment only. Independent Citizens' oversight, mandatory audits and public reports ensure funds are spent properly.

$.060000 per $100 of assessed valuation, which equates to $60.00 per $100,000.

Measure S – Oak Park Unified School District
Tax Rate Statement (continued)
First fiscal year after last sale of bonds: 2026-2027.
3.

Estimated total debt service, including the principal and interest: $136,111,963.
The attention of all voters is directed to the fact that the foregoing information is based upon projections and estimates only. The actual tax rates and the years in which they will apply may vary from those presently estimated, due to variations from these estimates in the timing of bond sales, the amount of bonds sold and market interest rates at the time of each sale, and actual assessed valuations over the term of repayment of the bonds. The date of sale and the amount of bonds sold at any given time will be determined by the District based on its need for construction funds and other factors. The actual interest rates at which the bonds will be sold will depend on the bond market at the time of sale. Actual future assessed valuations will depend upon the amount and value of taxable property within the District as determined by the County Assessor in the annual assessment and the equalization process. Accordingly, the actual tax rates and the years in which such rates are applicable may vary from those presently estimated as above stated.

WHEREAS, whether or not Oak Park residents have school-age children, protecting the quality of our schools, the quality of life in our community, and the value of our homes, is a wise investment; and
WHEREAS, the State is not providing the District with enough money for the District to adequately maintain its educational facilities and academic programs; and

WHEREAS, a local measure will help provide funds that cannot be taken away by the State to upgrade aging schools, update instructional technology and help the District to qualify for millions of dollars of State matching funds; and

WHEREAS, the Board and District have solicited stakeholder and community input on school priorities from parents, teachers, staff and the community; and

WHEREAS, concurrent with the passage of Proposition 39, Chapter 1.5, Part 10, Division 1, Title 1 (commencing with Education Code Section 15264) (the "Act") became operative and established requirements associated with the implementation of Proposition 39; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Education Code Section 15270, based upon a projection of assessed property valuation, the Board has determined that, if approved by voters, the tax rate levied to meet the debt service requirements of the bonds proposed to be issued will not exceed the Proposition 39 limits per year per $100,000 of assessed valuation of taxable property; and
