Bond Referendum

Most of our clients embark on a bond referendum with no experience; their committee had passion about the project, but really no idea how to be successful. We have been involved in scores of successful bond issues, and we know from those experiences what worked and what did not. Thus, we determined to create a strategy guidebook that our clients could use. It includes:

• Suggestions on the size and make-up of the committee, and the selection of chairs
• An organizational chart of subcommittees
• Job descriptions for all committees and the types of community members to seek out to be on the committee
• A suggested time line that proposes dates that various jobs need to be done, and which committee has responsibility for it

When clients follow the recommendations, the success rate is very high. Let us be clear that we don't simply send you a copy of the strategy book and let you flounder. We will be active members of the committee throughout its existence, lending the advice of our experience along the way. When the success of your project is dependent on public support and funding, effective communication of your ideas is crucial. We specialize in preparing materials and making presentations that build excitement and grassroots support for your project. Our innovative, step-by-step guide for the passage of referendums will take you from site selection to community consensus, to funding, and finally to the first day of school.
