The Florida Constitution allows a governing body — in this case, the School Board of Broward County, Florida — to go directly to Broward County’s voters with a referendum to obtain approval for a clearly specified reason. A bond referendum is an opportunity for county taxpayers to decide if the District can borrow money through the sale of a bond to finance capital projects for school safety projects, repairs and renovations to facilities and improvements to technology infrastructure. Voters approved the Bond on November 4, 2014.
