Finally, those in the Christoval Independent School District will be asked to cast their vote for or against a proposition that would issue $19.5 million of bonds by Christoval ISD that would have their use prioritized for the construction of a new fifth- to eighth-grade campus. The proposition would also levy a property tax to accommodate for the principal and interest of the bonds as well as the cost of any credit agreements executed in connection with the bonds.
