Faculty, staff, and students are invited to hear details and ask questions about the upcoming ACC bond and property tax cap election at information sessions on each campus beginning September 29.
On November 4, registered voters residing within the ACC District will decide three initiatives: two separate bond propositions and a proposed increase to the cap on the college’s maintenance and operations (M&O) tax rate.
Proceeds from the bonds would be used to renovate and expand several campuses, build a Leander campus, and purchase land for a workforce campus in southeast Travis County. The M&O tax revenues would be used for campus upkeep and operations, as well as to fund new programs and hire and retain high-caliber faculty and staff.

Employees may advocate for or against any election measure outside their capacity as an ACC employee. Outside organizations and individuals also may advocate on behalf of an election.
