The proposed bill, if enacted, would amend current statutes regarding school district bond elections by expanding the information required on the ballot. Specifically, it would mandate that the ballot includes a comprehensive list of proposed capital improvements funded by the bonds, detailing the anticipated costs, locations, and specific projects associated with each improvement. Additionally, it would require categorization of improvements and the calculation of each category's cost as a percentage of the total bond proceeds.

Furthermore, the bill introduces provisions allowing certain bond issuance questions to be presented to voters as a single proposition, while stipulating that bonds for specific purposes, such as the construction of large stadiums or administrative buildings, must be presented as separate propositions. This change aims to enhance transparency and provide voters with clearer information regarding the financial implications of bond measures related to school facilities and improvements.
