学校征税

六、资本征费规划

筹划下一次资本征款

重要的资金来源

Each voter-approved capital levy continues our investment in school buildings and student technology. These levies supply the main funding for school building improvements and much of the funding for SPS’s technology equipment, 软件, 服务, 和工作人员.

SPS战略计划, 西雅图卓越, includes the goal of providing safe and welcoming schools. This 的意思是s we must continually evaluate and improve the environments where our students learn.

银河娱乐博彩 has more than 100 school buildings. Our long-range capital plan is designed to upgrade, 翻新, and maintain our school buildings on a planned and predictable schedule. We must continually preserve and improve these buildings to ensure that they are available now and in the future.

资本资金与营运资金分开

While the district currently faces challenges in the annual operating budget, capital levy funds are separate and must be used for the building projects and technology priorities approved in the levy.

BEX VI税正在筹划中

We are currently planning for the next Building Excellence (BEX) Capital Levy. It will be the 6th BEX levy request, so we refer to it as BEX VI.

The Seattle School Board is expected to place BEX VI on the ballot for the February 2025 election.

现在正在发生什么- 2024年3 / 4月

概念规划

Bassetti Architects continues to develop concept plans for potential projects. Cost estimates are being developed as those concepts are considered.

Studies are also in progress to develop recommendations and cost estimates for clean energy improvements across the district.

Concept planning provides information needed to determine cost estimates – part of typical long-range planning steps to plan for the upgrade and renovation of aging school facilities.

概念计划不是项目计划, but “test fits” of several concepts to figure out what is feasible for a school site.

研究了许多项目. Having concept plans allows district to be ready when funding becomes available, either through a capital levy or through other funding sources.

为一所学校开展一项概念研究 的意思是 一个项目将被列入BEX VI.
