Garland residents interested in participating in a Bond Study Committee must submit required documents to City Secretary Rene Dowl, RDowl@GarlandTX.gov, by Tuesday, Sept. 5.
Before submitting a proposition to issue new or additional bonds for approval by the voters, the City Council first convenes a Bond Study Committee, composed of not less than nine residents, to make recommendations to the Council on all propositions.
Any proposition to issue new or additional bonds, payable from ad valorem taxes, shall be first submitted to a vote of the qualified voters of the City in an election held and conducted in accordance with state law and the Texas Constitution.
Committee members must be registered voters in Dallas or Collin County and live in Garland for at least one year.
