Morning
We must be at an "Orpha" Give Away.
"You get a Bond, You Get a Bond"
Here we go again. Pay attention to WHO is asking for this.
Remember the word being "Screamed from A TOP the W Hotel and the Chamber of
City Hall."
*"AFFORDABILITY"*

*A coalition of community and business leaders is urging *the Austin
Community College Board of Trustees to place a bond proposition on the
November ballot “to expand education and workforce training throughout our
region,” a*ccording to a press release from the political action committee
ACC Works for All. The PAC says a bond package of between $500 million and
$815 million *“will fund elements of the college’s Facilities Master Plan
and focus on increasing the college’s capacity to provide hands-on training
for in-demand jobs. The ACC bond could fund improvements at each of the
college’s 11 campuses and includes the development of a new regional
workforce training campus in Southeast Travis County.”* ACC trustees will
deliberate on whether to approve the bond proposition at the board retreat
today, Aug. 11.*
Wonder if this BOND will let the public review and comment more than a day
before the ACC Board says YES.
Oh wait and ACC has not let the taxpayer know how much they are going to
raise our property taxes yet.
Be Safe
