This bill amends Section 39.2 of the Iowa Code to specify the timing of school district bond elections. It establishes that such elections can only occur on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November during even-numbered years. This change is aimed at aligning school district bond elections with general election dates, thereby potentially increasing voter turnout and simplifying the election process for school districts.

In addition to the new provisions for school districts, the bill maintains the existing requirement for other political subdivisions to hold special elections for bond issuance on the same November date. The amendments clarify the distinction between school districts and other political subdivisions regarding the timing of bond elections, ensuring that school districts adhere to a specific schedule that differs from that of other entities.
