The vote to determine whether or not the Argyle School District receives a proposed tax increase from town residents will be decided this Saturday, Sept. 15.
The tax rate would go up by 2 cents per $100 in property valuation, resulting in an average increase to homeowners of just over $71 annually.
According to district officials, along with revenues gained from its limited open enrollment program, the tax hike would generate roughly $548,000 for the school district.
Without the funding from this vote, Argyle ISD will face a $516,000 deficit this school year and will be forced to consider significant cuts to programs and services, school officials said. Read more here.

On Saturday, voting will run from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
All voting will take place at the AISD Administration Building located at 800 Eagle Drive.
