THREE PROPOSITIONS WILL FACE AMARILLO VOTERS WHEN THEY HEAD TO THE VOTING BOOTH THIS NOVEMBER.

Proposition A - which would approve a $275 million bond for the Amarillo Civic Center and other downtown projects. The total cost of the proposal is $319 million, the difference of which City of Amarillo officials confirmed last year would be funded through certificates of obligation and other financing mechanisms.

Proposition B - extending the terms of members of the Amarillo City Council from two years each to four years each, along with the institution of staggered elections.

Proposition C - cutting the number of Amarillo City Council meetings by half, requiring two monthly meetings instead of four. Proponents say the weekly requirement is unsustainable in today’s modern world, noting the City Charter was written in 1913.
