Protect Local Control - Oppose SB 990
Happy Wednesday,
Despite ongoing lobbying efforts against SB 990 by school management and labor groups, the measure is set to be heard in the House Executive committee today. If it passes out of committee, the bill may be called for a full vote on the floor before the end of the week.
As we have written previously in calls to action, SB 990 represents a significant infringement on local control in that it would drastically limit a school district’s ability to sell property at its highest potential value. Additionally, the bill would incentivize municipalities and townships to view district property as an investment opportunity, as those entities would have the ability to purchase the property at a low price and then flip the property for a profit at a later date.
