SAMPLE BALLOT

Place 5 Greg Jubenville

Proposition A Shall the City Council of the city of Richardson, Texas, be authorized to issue general obligation bonds of the city in the principal amount of $46,000,000 for permanent public improvements and public purposes, to wit: designing, constructing, improving and equipping a new City Hall building including parking and landscaping related thereto and the demolition of the existing city hall building.

What does it mean? The city is asking voters to approve a $46 million bond proposition to provide funds for a new $85 million city hall facility to replace the building that was shut down after a re last August. If approved, the proposition would not cause a tax rate increase for Richardson residents, according to City Manager Don Magner. The city expects to open the new city hall, which ocials said will help provide more streamlined services to residents, by 2026.
