Voters statewide will weigh in on Issue 2, deciding whether to renew a program that has funded thousands of local infrastructure projects. Its passage would renew the State Capital Improvement Project (SCIP) – allowing the state to issue up to $250 million in bonds each year for the next decade – and would not increase taxes.
The money is used by local governments to pay for critical infrastructure projects, like improvements to roads, bridges, waste water treatment and water supply systems. Learn more about Issue 2 and read the ballot language at the link here.
