Dallas-Fort Worth voters approve millions in bonds

Dallas voters approved all 10 propositions in the city's $1.25 billion bond proposal.

The big picture: Several local municipalities asked residents to approve millions of dollars in bond packages for new parks, school campus upgrades, new court buildings, and other school and city projects.

• Most of the proposals passed.

What happened: The Dallas propositions — which included funding for new parks, improved streets and updated arts facilities — had little opposition.

• Fort Worth voters approved increasing the city's hotel occupancy tax to fund massive renovations at the convention center.
• McKinney voters approved four of five bond measures to improve and expand the city's park system and expand the public works campus. They rejected the proposition to build a new municipal court facility.

School districts: Grapevine-Colleyville ISD voters approved $150 million in bond propositions for school renovations and swim center upgrades.

• Lewisville ISD voters approved $101.8 million in bonds to upgrade and repair athletic facilities.

Yes, but: Anna residents voted against a $100 million Anna ISD bond package to build a 12,000-seat stadium with a turf field. It was the second time for Anna voters to reject plans to build a new stadium.
