Review of District’s 2006 Bond Program
On November 7, 2006, the voters of Birdville Independent School District (the “District”) approved the issuance of $128,600,000 of bonds. The actual results from the bond election (the “2006 Bond Program”) are summarized within the table below.
2006 Bond Election Results
Number of Votes FOR the Bond Program: 13,212 Percentage of Votes: 56.03% Number of Votes AGAINST the Bond Program: 10,368 Percentage of Votes: 43.97%
At the time of the 2006 Bond Election, taxpayers were informed the District’s Interest & Sinking
Fund (“I&S”) tax rate (i.e. the tax rate utilized for the repayment of bonds) would increase from 22.6 cents to 38.7 cents, which represented an increase of approximately 16.1 cents.
For year 2009/10, the District’s actual I&S tax rate is 36.5 cents, which is 2.2 cents below the projected rate communicated to taxpayers at the time of the 2006 Bond Election.

Current Market Review – Construction Costs
As evidenced by the U.S. Construction Index graph above, construction costs peaked in mid-year 2008 and have recently declined by 10-20% (depending upon the project) to cost levels experienced in year 2007. Historically, construction costs have correlated with the prevailing economic cycle and construction costs are likely to increase once the economy rebounds, but there remains a current opportunity to save significant dollars on authorized school construction projects.

Factors Affecting District’s Bond Capacity
I. Debt Limitations – State Law – Overview of “50.0 Cent Bond Test”
“50.0 Cent Bond Test” – The District may only issue new bonds to the degree it can prove, prior to sale, its Interest & Sinking Fund (“I&S”) tax rate (the portion of the District’s tax rate solely used to repay bonds) will not exceed 50.0 cents.

Projected Interest & Sinking Fund Tax Rates - Existing Bonds
Additional bond capacity pursuant to State law.
To the degree new bonds are repaid in the next 10 years, the District's ability to issue additional bonds without a tax increase is limited.
11
II. Taxable Assessed Valuation
The value of the District’s tax base directly impacts the dollar amount of bonds that may be issued for capital improvements, as this determines the annual revenues generated from the District’s I&S tax rate for the repayment of bonds.
The District’s taxable assessed valuation (net of frozen values) is currently $7,394,651,769.
Over the last 5-years, the District’s tax base has increased by an average of $338,226,894 per year.
The District’s tax base increased by $61,304,747, or 18% of the 5-year average, in year 2009/10.

Bonds are structured to include $15.0 million for technology related projects to be repaid within 5 years from issuance and to permit (if implemented) an additional $15.0 million of “technology bonds”to be issued every 5 years thereafter with no tax increase.
The bond program is sold at an interest rate of 6.00%. Current market rates of interest rate approximately 4.50%.
Bonds are amortized over a 25-year period and will be structured to allow the District to prepay the bonds prior to scheduled maturity, if appropriate in future years.

If you are 65 years of ageor older, a new bond program will not affect the school property taxes on your residential homestead, if you have filed for the “Over 65 HomesteadExemption” as there is a ceiling on the amount of school taxes to be paid by such taxpayers.

Projected Monthly Interest & Sinking Fund Tax IncreaseFor $106,606 Average Taxable Home Value(A)
__________(A) The District's average taxable home value for year 2009/10 is approximately $106,606, which is net of the State mandated $15,000 Residential Homestead Exemption.
Note: The State Property Tax Code allows for school property taxes on an individual homestead to be “frozen” at the age of 65. If you are 65 years of age or older, anew bond program will not affect the school property taxes on your residential homestead, if you have filed for the “Over 65 Homestead Exemption” as there is aceiling on the amount of school taxes to be paid by such taxpayers. The only exception is if improvements are made to a home.
