A May 2000 poll of 400 registered Cedar Rapids voters by the Center for Community Opinion finds 55.5 percent favoring a $147 million bond measure to renovate and expand district facilities, with majorities endorsing added classrooms, technology upgrades, arts and science facilities, and accessibility improvements.
A May survey by The Center for Community Opinion tested reactions to two bond options. Voters favored a five year plan at 79 million with an $86 per year tax. a ten year option at 147 million would raise taxes by 147 annually. Results showed strong parent support but lower overall backing, prompting a board to pursue the smaller plan and revisit in 2005. The board meets Monday at 7:30 pm at the Educational Services Center to discuss the findings.
A Cedar Rapids Community School District survey details endorsements and opposition from groups such as WHEN and labor entities, plus undecided responses. It tracks support for a local bond, concerns on tax costs, and public opinion on funding a 10 year school facilities plan with varying proposal structures.
