SINCE MY LAST SCHOOL BOARD UPDATE
On October 18th attended the Royal View PTA Book Fair. It was great to see so many students excited about reading books. Special thanks to the Royal View PTA for all their hard work. I had so much fun I couldn’t help myself I found a great book to even donate to Royal View as well. I am excited to be the Board Building Liaison to Royal View and look forward to many more fun events like this throughout the year to come.

Many of you have been asking about my position on the bond issue or about various aspects of it. You can find my statements regarding the upcoming bond issue that I have given on the record on my website at www.danlangshaw.com or click on the links below.
A common question I get asked by constituents is how much the bond issue is going to cost home owners. Below is the cost of the proposed bond issue by home value:
$100,000 market value home – $81.27 per year
$150,000 market value home – $121.91 per year
$200,000 market value home – $162.55 per year
