SJR 92 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Increases the debt limit for school districts

SJR 92 proposes a constitutional amendment to increase Missouri school districts' maximum allowable debt from 5% to 20% of their taxable property value. This change would directly affect all public school districts in Missouri, allowing them to borrow more for capital projects like building construction or renovations. The bill modifies Article VI of the Missouri Constitution to set this new 20% debt limit, while maintaining existing voter approval requirements (4/7 at general elections). This is a straightforward policy change to expand school districts' financing capacity for infrastructure needs.
