There a re a number of re a so n s why schools o fte n a re and should be
financed by bond is s u e s . Two o f th e s e reasons a re :
1.
Since th e se sc h o o ls w ill be used o v e r a long p e rio d

se v e ra l new sch o o ls are needed each y e a r, th e con
s tr u c tio n c o s t i s too g re a t to be borne in an annual

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CANVASSERS12"
'
(SCHOOL BOND ELECTION - May 1952)
Elections are won by the side that gets the met voters who are f aver able to
its cause to the polls. In a goecial election, where the vote is apt to be
light, the margin of victory may be small, and a few voters will make a
tremendous difference.
That is why your job as a canvasser is all-important.
burden in three main phases cf the campaigns
1. To educate those voters who are not
for new school construction in Arlington.
You will carry the
familiar with the desperate need
2.
To identify the voters who are faver abb to the bond issue.
3.
To follow up on the favorable voters to make sure they go to the polls.
You will be provided with the names of the registered voters whom you are to
canvass. You will also receive a kit of materials, including folders explaining
in detail our school construction needs and how they will be met through the
bond issue, to be left with the voters.
The Initial Visit. After the date of the election has
your initial visits. Call on each family assigned to you
children in the public schools or pre-school children, or
reason to believe the family will support the bond i sue.
attitude of the voter on bond 3 sues will be noted on the
s
been announced, make
where there are
where you have other
(where known, the past
list cf voters given you. )
The purpose cf the visit is to rake sure the family understands our school
needs, and then to find out, if you can, whether they are in favor c the bond
f
issue. If they are faver able, emphasize the date cf the election and the impor
tance of making their votes count.
If the family is against the bond issue, don't argue. Leave as soon as possible.
If you arouse them by argument, they may becane more active against the bonds.
If you're new at canvassing, you may find the best way to "break the ice" is
to go over the leaflet with them. Then let them ask questions. For the most
part, little selling js necessary. The numbers tell the story— either the bond
issue is passed or several thousand children go on half-day sessions.
The Follow Up. As you leave the house,.be sure to note whether the family was
for or against the bond issue. Then, a day before the election (or two days, if
you have a long list) call each of the favorable voters by phone and remind them
of the election. Be sure he knows where to vote and the hours of voting —
a.m. to < p.m. Offer transportation and baby-sitting if you have to— but
p
make sure they go to the polls!
Getting New Voters Registered. If you know of people favorable to the bonds
who have paid their poll tax, they can register up to 6 days before the election.
You will want to follow up on those you know who aren't registered.
Records. Immediately after the election, return your list of voters— with
a notation on the attitude of each person contacted. A careful record is in
valuable in determining whom to call upon in future bond campaigns.

BONDS are the CHEAPEST Way— the FAIREST Way— to Build GOOD
SCHOOLS!
BONDS divide the cost of schools among the generations which will use them.
BONDS save thousands by “ mass production” of classrooms.
BONDS make it possible to buy sites for tomorrow’s buildings at today’s prices.
BOND interest is only 2 % — how else can money be borrowed so cheaply?

Attendance has increased 6,001 in the past four years.
Attendance is expected to increase 6,000 in the next four years.
This is an average of 1,500 more children each year.
1,500 more children each year equals one new classroom a week.
QUESTION 1: Shall we build an average of one new classroom a week to house
the additional children?
20 % (2,253) of the elementary school children are on double shifts.
21% (2,900) of the elementary school children will be on double shifts in 1955-56,
if no new schools are built other than those now under construction.
QUESTION 2: Shall we build enough schools to eliminate double shifts?
17% (1,907) of the elementary school children are in 66 makeshift classroom s:
1 is in a teachers' room
32 are in school basem ents
5 are in multi-purpose rooms
5 are in school libraries
6 are in a war surplus building
2 are in Page Annex
15 are in apartments in Federal housing projects.
13% (1,877) of the elementary school children will be in 65 makeshift classroom s
in 1955-56, if no. new schools are built other than those now under construction.
QUESTION 3: Shall we build enough schools to eliminate makeshift classroom s?
Many children are reguired to attend older schools that do not h av e ad e q u a te
classrooms, a school library, a multi-purpose room, clinic space, or other m odern
conveniences.
QUESTION 4: Shall we remodel older school buildings to m ake them m ore n early
comparable with our new schools?
Good school sites are fast disappearing.
Land prices are steadily increasing.
QUESTION 5: Shall we buy now the building sites needed in the foreseeable future?
22 of the elementary schools, with 65 % (7,428) of the elem entary school children,
do not have a hot lunch program.
A hot lunch could be provided these children by equipping the central kitchen
in the administration building and by remodeling and equipping these 22
schools.
QUESTION 6: Shall we provide a hot lunch program for all schools?

One new junior high school, Stratford, has been built in the last 4 years.
The first unit of Wakefield and the two high school additions will exhaust present bond funds.
Junior-senior high school enrollment will increase 1,000 or more per year after 1953-54.
Unless more schools are built, enrollment will be more than 2,000 above capacity in 1954-55.
It takes approximately 30 months to plan and construct a high school building.
FIRST—Face the facts that:
(1) It takes time to build a school.
(2) Enrollment has been increasing faster than capacity.
(3) 1,500 more children each year equals one new classroom a
week.
(4) Unless we start to build more schools now, total enrollment will
excede total capacity by about:
(a) 4,400 in 1953-54,
(b) 6,000 in 1954-55,
(c) 7,200 in 1955-56.
THEN—Decide how far w e shall go toward meeting the need for more schools
for our children.

What Will the Combined Bond Issues
Cost the Arlington Home Owner?
To repay the combined proposed bond issues with interest over a 20-year period will require an increase in the
property tax rate of less than 5 percent. The average cost to the owner of a $20,000 home in Arlington would be about
$12 a year for repayment of principal and interest on such bonds.
Repayment of principal and interest on the proposed bonds has been carefully planned to fit into the financial
structure of the County, so as not to cause unduly high costs in any one year.

The Arlington County Board and Arlington School Board
are jointly presenting, for approval by the voters of Arlington,
bond issues totaling $7,580,000for County improvements.

regional park program.
To further this program, the present bond proposals include street
and sidewalk improvements and storm water drainage control as well as
improvements to fire fighting facilities. Also included are improvements
to library and health neighborhood services, and additional recreation
facilities.
Improvements to existing school facilities are proposed, and addi

FOR S C H O O L C O N S T R U C T I O N
A large increase in school enrollment in one particular
area of Arlington, coupled with the community's high
standards of public education, are factors which influenced
the School Board to present a bond proposal to County
voters at this time. The money is needed to finance school
construction.
Projects to be built immediately are:
ADDITION AT DREW SCHOOL
A serious shortage of classroom space has arisen at Drew
school, 2410 South Lincoln Street. A t least 19 new class
rooms are needed to meet school needs in that vicinity. The
children in 10 classrooms at Drew are on half-day sessions
this year.
Drew school, named for a famous Negro physician, is
operated os one unit with the nearby Kemper school. En
rollment in the Drew-Kemper area stands this year at 744.
By next year there will be 800 children in the first six grades
there. Other Arlington elementary schools in that section of
the County cannot accommodate the present Drew overload
nor the larger number of children expected to enter Drew
in the immediate years ahead.
Building of the extra classrooms for Drew will provide the
children of this area with good school facilities within walk
ing distance of their homes.
STREETS AND HIGHW AYS
To carry forward the long range plan for the
improvement of traffic flows and the elimination
o f traffic hazards__________________________ $2,660,000
AUXILIARY GYMNASIUMS AT
WASHINGTON-LEE H IG H SCHOOL
The Virginia State Board of Education recommends auxil
iary gymnasiums for large secondary schools in the state.
The original plans for the 1952 Washington-Lee addition in
cluded auxiliary gyms, but they were eliminated. The result
is that as many as six physical education classes
must be conducted at one time in the present gymnasium.
The School Board wishes to build two auxiliary gymnas
iums at Washington-Lee with accompanying locker facilities.
This would bring Washington-Lee physical education facili
ties to an acceptable standard.
MULTIPURPOSE ROOMS AT
FOUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS
Four of Arlington's older elementary schools are still
without multipurpose rooms and kitchens. The multipurpose
rooms are needed for combined use as cafeterias, auditor
iums and playrooms. All other elementary schools in Arling
ton now have such facilities.
Schools needing multipurpose rooms are:
Nellie Custis, 712 23rd Street South.

What Will the Combined Bond Issues
Cost the Arlington Home Owner?
Arlington is today paying o ff its bonded indebtedness at the rate o f $1,828,000 a year and enjoys an
excellent credit rating.
To repay the combined proposed bond issues, with interest over a 20-year period will require an in
crease in the property tax rates of less than 4 per cent. The average cost to the owner o f a $20,000 home in
Arlington would be about $10 a year for repayment of principal and interest on such bonds.
Repayment of principal and interest on the proposed new bonds will be planned to f it into the financial
structure o f the County so as to avoid unduly high costs in any one year.

hood Branch Libraries in the following areas: Shirlington.
Westover, and Glencarlyn, to replace present inadequate
facilities.
FIRE FIGHTING FACILITIES BONDS
To carry out the next stage of the long range program for
the improvement of fire protection facilities
$475,000
This will provide a consolidated Fire Division Headquarters
at a reconstructed fire station in Clarendon, and the purchase
of land at the Hall's Hill Station.
The Drew-Kemper school area is the only section in
Arlington where we have an acute need for classroom
space. As stated above, the §950,000 in school bonds
asked at this time will build 22 new classrooms and
other accompanying school facilities at Drew-Kemper—
and will buy land at other schools where there is limited
playground area.
More than 1,000 children of kindergarten and elemen
tary school age are enrolled in the Drew-Kemper
schools. The School Board believes all these children are
entitled to attend school in attractive, clean, safe class
rooms within walking distance of their homes.
The Present Situation
About half of the Drew-Kemper children (492 of
them) are fortunate enough to attend school in the
modern Drew elementary school a t 25th and South
Lincoln Street.
There is no modern school for the rest of the DrewKemper boys and girls. This year, 129 of them are
housed in the old Kemper school, built 37 years ago.
The remaining 407 Drew-Kemper pupils go outside
their home area to classes in the former Dolly Madison
Junior High. This building was abandoned some years
ago for permanent junior high school use because of
traffic noise on Shirley Highway, limited playground
space, and lack of essential facilities. The building is
unsuitable for elementary pupils.
The School Board plans to add the 22 needed class
rooms to the present Drew school, giving all the DrewKemper children a modern school plant.
A little more than ten acres of land will be available
for the enlarged school. The present Drew building
stands on a site of slightly more than five acres. Three
additional acres of land are being purchased by the
School Board. Two acres of adjoining county-owned
playground will be used cooperatively by the school and
the county Recreation Department. (This is a plan fol
lowed at several schools in Arlington). A short section
of 24th Street will be vacated to unify the site.
Two School Units
The enlarged school will be in two sections—one for
young children from kindergarten through the third
grade, the other for upper elementary grades. As is the
case at present, assistant principals will be employed.
The two school units will be separately administered.
Each will have its own playground areas and its own
lunchroom and recreation facilities. This, the School
Board believes, will provide an educationally sound pro
gram and a good school environment.
Although many sincere Arlington citizens would pre
fer to have an entirely new school built, rather than to
add classrooms to the present Drew school, the Arling
ton School Board knows of no other satisfactory school
site in the area. For this reason the School Board asks
voters to approve the enlargement of the present Drew
school.

What About the Debt of Arlington County?
The present debt supported by taxes is $32,231,700. This debt will be reduced by $1,908,575 by
June 30, 1962, and, it is expected, by an additional $1,898,575 the following year.
Repayment of principal and interest on the proposed new bonds will be arranged to fit into the
planned financial structure of the County.
The debt service on the proposed bonds will be about $373,000
the first year. This is approximately equivalent to what 8 cents of the present tax rate yields, based on present
assessed valuations. This debt service requirement will be less each year for the 20 year life of the bonds.
W ater and Sewer U tility Bonds ($9,041,000) are paid for from service charges rather than taxes.

concerning
PROPOSED COUNTY AND SCHOOL BONDS
To he Voted on
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1963
The Arlington County Board and the Arlington School Board have
unanimously agreed to submit for approval by the citizens of Arlington,
a total of $9,950,000 in County and School improvement bonds. Pro
ceeds from the sale of these bonds will be used in the program of
needed improvements in the County with priority given to those shown
on the inside o f this leaflet.
Improvements to the sanitary sewerage system requiring more than
half of the total proposed, will carry out carefully considered long range
plans and meet the County's commitment to the State Water Control
Board. The bond proceeds also will make possible acquisition of land for
parks and playgrounds, an addition to the Central Library, and a con
tinuation of the program to control storm water drainage.
Improvements to existing school facilities at several locations are
proposed to meet the needs of an expanding school population.

SANITARY SEWERAGE SYSTEM
To carry forward the long range program for the enlarge
ment, improvement, and extension o f the sanitary
sew erage system o f the County
$5,560,000
SECON DARY SEW AGE TREATMENT
Arlington is committed to the Virginia State Water Con
trol Board to provide secondary sewage treatment
facilities to achieve and maintain the water quality
objectives for the Potomac River in the National Capital
Region. Arlington is now the only major jurisdiction in
the Region without secondary treatment of its sewage.
Cost—$4,700,000.
DIVERSION O F SEW A GE FLOW
Arlington has agreed to participate in sewerage con
struction work being undertaken by the District of
Columbia to accommodate sewage originating in four
Arlington drainage areas. This diversion of sewage
across Chain Bridge will relieve the existing Potomac
Interceptor Sewer of the Arlington System.
Cost—$860,000.
�Immediate School Needs - $1,950,000
COUNTY LAND
ACQUISITION BONDS
To continue a program o f land a c
quisition for parks and playgrounds con
form ing t o p rojected plans
.$1,000,000
PLAYGROUNDS TO BE ENLARGED
This will provide funds for expansion
of existing playgrounds and recreation
areas in four locations—Barcroft, 16th
Street South and South Four Mile Run
Drive; Fillmore, First Street North and
North Fillmore Street; Greenbrier, 27th
Street North and North Greenbrier
Street; and Walter Reed, 1401 South
Walter Reed Drive. New playgrounds
will be established in Arlington Heights,
6th Street South and South Wayne
Street, as well as at 20th Road North
and North Woodstock Street.
VALLEYS T O BE PRESERVED
Stream Valley parks and nature trails
have been created in the major water
sheds. Acreage will be added to protect
the natural state of the valley and extend
public ownership along Four Mile Run
tributaries between Arlington Boulevard
and Columbia Pike; Donaldson Run and
Taylor Park; and Gulf Branch.
LIBRARY BONDS
To carry out the next stage o f the long
range program for the im provem ent o f
public library service
$440,000
Construction of the planned addition to
the Central Library has been projected at
this time because of the full utilization
of the existing basic structure. Adequate
space is needed for special services es
sential in a comprehensive library
system.
SPECIAL COL LE C TIO N S:
Rapid expansion of the basic collection
is pressing the small areas housing spec
ial resources. Areas suitable for the
shelving and use of expanding reference,
business, microfilm, and phonograph col
lections are justified to facilitate effective
use by the public.
PUBLIC SPACE:
Intensive use of the main reading room
by student researchers makes it neces
sary to provide work desks for adult
users. At present there is no room for
small discussion groups, private type
writers, or a lounge. The popularity of
the children's collection and story hours
call for additional space.
W O R K SPACE:
The accelerated book purchase pro
gram and the receipt of gift books neces
sitated the expansion of the processing
functions into space originally planned
for stacks. Efficient work space for this
operation is needed.
Growth in Arlington population has in
creased public school enrollment beyond
the capacity of present buildings.
The School Board is limiting its pres
ent request for bond funds to the im
mediately urgent projects listed below,
although the Board recognizes that some
other schools also need improvement.
14 ELEMENTARY
CLASSROOMS N E E D E D ____ $560,000
Three years ago there were 13,180 boys
and girls in kindergarten through the
sixth grade in Arlington schools. Today
the enrollment exceeds 14,000.
Claremont School
4700 South Chesterfield Road
At the 16-room Claremont school, nine
rooms are now used by the first three
grades. As these children move ahead,
more classrooms will be a necessity.
Building permits for high rise apart
ments containing 1,700 dwelling units
have recently been issued in the Clare
mont school area. These will bring even
more pupils to Claremont school.
Glencarlyn School
737 South Carlyn Springs Road
Eighty first-grade pupils showed up at
Glencarlyn school in September. In
previous years two first-grade classrooms
had been enough—but 80 first graders
cannot be taught adequately by only two
teachers. To meet the emergency, a
school activity room was put into use as
a classroom and a third first-grade teach
er was employed. As these pupils pro
gress into second grade, and as more first
graders (already in the neighborhood)
arrive next year, more classrooms must
be provided.
Langston School
4854 Lee Highway
Langston school has 10 classrooms, but
kindergarten pupils there have to be
housed in an old frame dwelling. It is
proposed to add a kindergarten classroom
and other classroom space to meet a pro
jected enrollment indicated by increasing
numbers of children in the area.
Abingdon School
3035 South Abingdon Street
Abingdon school was originally built
as a primary school, for pupils in the
first three grades. Construction in the
neighborhood soon brought so many other
children that it was necessary to make it
a full elementary school, grades one
through six. Now more classrooms are
needed there. (See item below for other
proposed improvements at Abingdon.)
MULTIPURPOSE ROOM AND
LIBRARY AT ABINGDON____ $125,000
The small library and multipurpose
room at Abingdon were designed for
young children and are inadequate for a
complete elementary school. A part of
the funds from the proposed bond issue
would be used to remodel the present
building to provide a larger library.
A multipurpose room, similar to those
in other Arlington elementary schools,
is needed for use as a cafeteria, an audi
torium, and for physical education.
MORE PHYSICAL EDUCATION
SPACE AND KITCHEN MODERN
IZATION PROPOSED AT
WASHINGTON-LEE _________$475,000
Auxiliary Gymnasiums—Under Vir
ginia state regulations, physical educa
tion is a required course for all tenth and
eleventh grade students. Because of the
large enrollment at Washington-Lee
High School, a heavy schedule of physi
cal education classes must be taught
every day. Space is so limited that it is
necessary to use even the balconies of the
gymnasium as teaching stations.
To meet the situation, the School Board
wishes to add auxiliary gymnasiums at
Washington-Lee, lockers, and space for
corrective physical education for students
unable to take part in regular gym
classes. (Both Wakefield and Yorktown
have auxiliary gymnasiums.)
Kitchen Remodeling—With 2300 stu
dents and a faculty of more than 125,
Washington-Lee High School operates its
school lunch service in a kitchen too
small to accommodate modern food prep
aration equipment.
Cramped quarters make it necessary
for cooks and bakers to work in the main
line of traffic through which deliveries
are made and through which trash is
carried out.
The School Board finds it necessary to
enlarge and modernize the WashingtonLee kitchen with adequate refrigerators,
dishwashers, stoves, and work space.
CLASSROOMS, SHOP SPACE AND
ASSEMBLY ROOM PROPOSED
FOR WAKEFIELD___________$550,000
Enrollment at Wakefield High School
passed 2400 this year—more than onefifth above the planned capacity.
The School Board now needs to add 10
classrooms, or equivalent space, to help
relieve Wakefield overcrowding.
Teaching in large groups has become a
recognized part of the curriculum in good
secondary schools today. An assembly
room for such instruction and other
school activities is also planned at
Wakefield. Additional shop facilities are
needed to provide for an adequate voca
tional and industrial arts program.
LAND ACQUISITION AT
ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS ____$240,000
Many of Arlington’ older public
s
schools were built on sites which are far
too small by present standards. The
$240,000 requested in the bond referen
dum will enable some of the sites to be
enlarged.
�D e b t R etirem en t
$2.4 Million in 1963
During the last fiscal year the total
b on d ed
indebtedness o f
Arlington
C ou n ty was reduced to $42,416,550 on
June 30, 1963. Repayment o f the prin
cipal and interest on the prop osed new
bonds will be arranged to fit into the
planned financial structure o f the
County.
General O bligation Bonds
Taxes support $34,444,500 o f the total
d e b t on June 30, 1963. This represents
8.5% o f the assessed value o f real estate
in the County on January I, 1963. The
p rop osed new bonds for storm drainage
control, land acquisition, library facilities,
and schools totaling $4,390,000 will b e
repaid from taxes.
Utility Bonds
The remainder o f the debt, $7,972,000,
is in outstanding water and sewer utility
bonds which are being retired from
service charges, not taxes. Repayment
o f the proposed new bonds for the Sani
tary Sew erage System, $5,560,000 is
planned from service charges.
This letter is published jointly by the
Arlington County Board and the Arling
ton School Board to provide information
concerning the proposed bond issues. It
is being mailed to all registered voters at
County and School expense.

August 12, 1965
To:
Mr. Bert W. Johnson, County Manager
From:
Edgar D. Smith, Finance Director
I have prepared several schedules and charts which reflect Arlington County's
ability to carry its long-term debt.
The proposed issues totaling $17,315,000 are
incorporated but the schedules do not reflect issues which might occur between 1965
and 1970.
Debt data of several municipalities are used.
This is not used to justify
a new bond issue; but only to reflect status of other municipalities as compared to
Arlington County.
The proposed issues of $17,315,000 will increase our long-term debt to
$61,164,000 as of June 30, 1966.
We expect this debt then to be 12.8 % of assessed
value of real property and a per capita debt of $3 3 4 ,
While most municipalities have some debt limits established by constitution or
statutes, Arlington County does not have an imposed debt limit.
We have an excellent
record for percentage of debt to assessed value of real property, per capita debt,
percentage of debt costs to total budget and the equivalent tax rate for debt service.
It is apparent Arlington County is in excellent financial condition to propose
this bond issue.
The funds derived from this proposed issue will be an investment
in improvement to our facilities which can provide continued growth and prosperity.

Revenue from Real Estate Tax is projected at the current rate of
$3.87.
Though the Water-Sewer utility bonds are general obligation of
the County, the servicing costs come from utility revenues.
tax rate will therefore be some 207o less than that shown.

PROPOSED ABC EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE POLICY POSITION TO ENDORSE
ARLINGTON COUNTY'S FY 1989-1994 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
AND 1988 BOND REFERENDA
(JULY 17, 1988)
FROM:
Members of the ABC Ad-Hoc Committee on 1988 Bond Issues
(Outreach Subcommittee)
TO:
Members of the ABC Executive Committee
SUMMARY:
On 6/6/88, the County Manager presented the County Board
with an information package which summarized a proposed
Capital Improvements Program (CIP) for 1989-1994. The
CIT is a planning document that serves as the county's
"basic guide . . . to plan and schedule capital projects
which the County expects to fund in the next six years"
(from the County Manager's report).
For the first time
in several decades, the CIP includes capital improvement
projects for Arlington's schools.
The County Manager proposed that 55.6% of the current
CIP be financed with bonds and the remaining 44.4% with
pay-as-you-go financing (from general revenues). The
major program areas of the CIP are as follows:
LOCAL PARKS/RECREATION: Mostly bond funds
TRANSPORTATION: Mostly bond funds
STORM DRAINAGE: Mix of bond and p-a-y-g
COMMUNITY CONSERVATION: Mostly bond funds
GOVERNMENT FACILITIES: Includes new jail
REGIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS: Bond and p-a-y-g
UTILITIES: Capital projects via bonds
SCHOOLS: Mostly bond funding through 1991

TOTAL 1989-1994 CIP
$ 275.7 MIL
The 1989-1994 CIP was approved by the County Board on
6/25/88.
In addition to the CIP, the County Manager proposed that
six bond referenda be placed on the ballot for considera
tion by Arlington voters in November. The referenda
represent six different program areas that traditionally
are funded by the issuance of bonds.
"Projects funded
with bond proceeds generally have a useful life which is
similar in length to the repayment schedule of the bonds.
. . . Arlington typically sells 20-year serial bonds and
CONTINUED

pays off 5% of the bond principal each year" (from the
County Manager's report). Arlington has a top municipal
credit rating, and if the bond measures are approved the
County will remain "well within the acceptable range o f '
debt capacity factors."
The six proposed bond referenda are as follows:
LOCAL/REGIONAL PARKS AND RECREATION
STREETS AND HIGHWAYS
COMMUNITY CONSERVATION
JAIL CONSTRUCTION
WASTE WATER TREATMENT

$

The County Board approved the six referenda in principle
for inclusion on the November ballot, and will be meeting
on August 13th to decide on the language of the referenda
and the final bond amounts.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
I.
That the ABC Executive Committee officially endorse the
inclusion of the six bond referenda on the November 1988
ballot (at the approximate dollar amounts proposed by the
County Manager);
II.
That the ABC Executive Committee officially endorse the
approval of the bond referenda that are placed on the
ballot by the County Board at its 8/13/88 meeting;
III. That the ABC Executive Committee approve of and support
the activities of the ABC Ad-hoc Committee on the 1988
Bond Issues as it performs the following roles:
(1) Fund raising support for the ABC campaign for the
1988 bond referenda;
(2) Precinct operations to generate voter support prior
to and on election day;
(3) An active outreach/public information campaign in
support of the bond referenda.
IV.
That the ABC Executive Committee endorse in concept the
outreach strategy summarized below, including the mailing
of an information brochure to all county households, with
a total budget of approximately $10,000-15,000.
CONTINUED
�-3RATIONALE:
The recommendation is in keeping with the purpose of Arlingtonians for a Better County — to work for good government,
quality services, and a high standard of living for all
citizens of Arlington. The bond project is necessary to help
maintain the viability of ABC as an independent organization
that is willing to take a position on issues of importance to
Arlington. The CIP projects and the six bond issues are im
portant for maintaining Arlington's standard of excellence in
its parks, intrastructure, and most importantly, its schools.
AD HOC COMMITTEE STRATEGY SUMMARY:
Objective: To represent ABC in support of Arlington's FY-1988
bond referenda (all six bond issues).
ABC roles: (1) Fund raising support for the activities of
the ad-hoc bond committee; (2) Precinct operations (phone
banks, door-to-door distributions, election day activities);
(3) Outreach/public information campaign.
Q m
