Arizona Bonds Approved/2004 Bond Elections Provide 1 Billion dollar Plus for Construction

摘要

Municipalities across Arizona approved more than 1 billion dollar in new bonding for construction projects across the state. Arizona voters overwhelmingly approved funding for hundreds of capital improvement and construction. Voters in New Mexico held statewide elections but no bond elections. Pima County had the largest bond election in Arizona, with voters approving 732.4 million dollars- 144.4 million dollars for habitat-land acquisition and 588 million dollars for capital improvements and construction. "By our calculations, about 240 million dollars of the 732 million dollars bond package directly benefits the city of Tucson," said City of Tucson communications director Jay Gonzalez. "We believe 180 million dollars of that is in the general obligation bonds, and another 60 million dollars in the sewer revenue bonds. Of that, we believe 200 dollars is going to capital improvement projects."
