Early voters in Arlington approved Tuesday the five-year, $236 million bond package that focuses on streets, parks, fire facilities and libraries. The bond projects will not increase property taxes.
Many of the proposed projects would renovate, rebuild and update existing facilities throughout the City. Proposed new projects include a recreation/aquatic center in southeast Arlington, recreation/aquatic center and library in east Arlington and an off-leash dog park in west Arlington.
"Residents have always been very helpful in furthering the quality of life in Arlington, and this bond election helps us meet those goals," said Mayor Robert N. Cluck, M.D. "I think residents understand the benefits of saying 'yes,' and it doesn't raise their tax rate."
