Bond issues are how the only way that some entities, such as school districts, are able to expand and grow their facilities in advance of increasing populations such as is happening in most counties in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
Where are these increasing populations coming from? Do the DFW school districts require citizenship documentation? Do the parents of those students pay taxes?
I have no children, yet I pay over $5,000 each year in school district taxes simply because I own a home.
My neighbor across the street has four children attending public school. He pays exactly the same property tax that I do.
What's wrong with this picture?
