| Collier County Public Schools (CCPS) Needs Flexibility in Funding |
| As we prepare for the August 2020 election, we wanted to share some important information with you. |
|
|
| CCPS has announced a tax-neutral referendum to be placed on the upcoming Primary Election ballot on August 18, 2020. A similar tax-neutral referendum was passed in 2008 and 2012. While not resulting in any increase in tax, this referendum will help students continue achieving success. |
|
|
| In order to maintain the programs and quality staff that make us an academically high-performing school district, CCPS needs flexibility to use capital dollars for operating expenses to meet the needs of students. A vote is required through a referendum in order to provide this flexibility. |
|
|
| If approved in August, this tax-neutral referendum will provide flexibility by adding up to .35 operating millage, while voluntarily reducing the capital millage by the same amount. |
