$15.9 million Plainview school bond approved by voters
The Daily Ardmoreite
Voters who cast ballots in the Plainview Public Schools bond issue through Tuesday again showed overwhelming support for upgrades across the entire district.
Two bond projects totaling more than $15.9 million each received over 87% approval, according to unofficial results from the Oklahoma Election Board.
The larger, $15.3 million proposal, includes new safe rooms at the middle and elementary campuses along with other campus expansion and upgrades of lighting, transportation and air conditioning.
A second transportation proposal will provide $600,000 to replace six of the district’s buses, Superintendent Karl Stricker told The Ardmoreite last month. Both proposals were made as previous bonds are ending and neither result in tax increases.
