Bond/Levy InformationThe Warrensburg R-VI Board of Education and the Warrensburg R-VI School District administration made the decision on Tuesday, May 19, 2020, that should the debt-service levy increase on the June 2, 2020, ballot be successful, the district will delay the $.10 cent increase in the debt-service levy until the 2021 tax year. How can this be done? The Warrensburg R-VI School District has a sufficient debt-service levy (currently $.72 cents) that would allow the District to begin construction/renovations sometime in late June 2020 and still be on schedule for completion of all projects in the fall of 2021. The Board of Education would not increase the debt-service levy ($.10 cents) until August of 2021 and taxpayers would not be assessed the increase until their 2021 tax bills are due. At that time, the debt-service levy would be increased to $.82 cents and would then generate the additional monies needed to make payments on the bonds to complete the construction/renovation projects. The school district and the Campaign Committee will be communicating this message to all patrons and continue to encourage everyone to vote on June 2, 2020.
