AISD board preps for special called meeting

The Austin Independent School District Board of Trustees will spend next Monday tying up the loose ends of its November bond proposal. Before taking a formal vote to call the election, the board will first hear from the community. At the last board meeting earlier this week, trustees emphasized the fact that any plan would not result in a tax increase, and heard from residents with mixed feelings about a proposal to relocate the Liberal Arts and Science Academy. At this special called meeting, trustees will also vote to appoint board officers. It begins at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, June 26, at the Carruth Administration Center, 1111 W. Sixth Street, Room B100.
