(KNZA)--The Holton school district is moving forward with plans for a possible bond issue.

The Holton Recorder reports the USD 336 Board of Education voted unanimously Monday night to approve a resolution of intent for a bond issue not to exceed 22 million dollars.

The proposed bond would fund improvements primarily at Holton Middle School and High School, along with district-wide security upgrades and athletic facility improvements.

About 12-point-2 million dollars is proposed for the middle school, including a secure entrance, building additions, HVAC and restroom upgrades, a new multipurpose building and gym improvements.

Another 9-point-8 million dollars would go toward high school improvements, including security upgrades, third-floor HVAC improvements and new boilers, restroom renovations, gym improvements, football stadium upgrades and track resurfacing.

The resolution is a notice of intent. The district must first seek approval from the Kansas State Board of Education before moving forward with the bond election.

Voters in USD 336 are scheduled to decide on the proposed bond March 3rd, 2027.
