YOU did it, Frisco!
In January of 2023, the Frisco Citizens Bond Committee recommended a bond package totaling $473.4 million. In February, the Frisco City Council approved placing five propositions on the ballot for the May 6th general election. Voters must approve each proposition (A through E) individually before general obligation certificates may be issued for the projects outlined in each proposition.
Over the next 6+ years, these projects will be critical to support Frisco’s growth while maintaining the high quality of life we’ve come to expect.
