Austin voters will have the opportunity to decide on city bonds and charter amendments in November. The Austin City Council recently voted to place measures on the ballot, which includes borrowing for parks and libraries. The package consists of two propositions, one for park improvements and the other for libraries.
Further details on the propositions are available from the Austin City Council. The total amount of borrowing is $295 million, with $260 million allocated for parks and $35 million for libraries. The city council's decision comes after two years of debate on the affordability of another bond.
