WILLCOX, Ariz. — Willcox Unified School District is looking to complete four high-priority projects but need help from city residents. The district is asking for votes on a bond that will be on an all-mail ballot special election.“We’re the major employer in Willcox but we don’t have the kind of money that it takes, unfortunately, to address the needs that we have in our district," he said."With the types of facilities we have, and the age they have on them.
The bond is for $15 million dollars and will fund four projects. The projects include upgrading security measures like gates and windows, upgrading the athletics facilities, building a physical education and activity room at the elementary school, and other capital improvement projects. “It’s upgrades that have to happen now," she said."And if they don’t happen now the cost is just going to skyrocket later. Because it’s not going to become a repair-and-maintenance issue, it’s going to become a replacement issue.”
She said she's even spoken with graduates from last year who were unable to vote because of their age, but registered to vote so they can vote in this special election.
