HB 2514 Oregon House · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to education service district indebtedness.

HB 2514 allows Oregon education service districts (ESDs) to borrow more money for school building projects than previously permitted. It permits ESD boards to issue bonds for capital costs (like constructing or renovating school facilities) up to 7.95% of the district's total taxable property value, exceeding limits set for individual school districts. This change directly affects ESDs and their member school districts by expanding their borrowing capacity for facility improvements. The bill modifies existing law to align ESD debt limits with constitutional provisions for school capital projects.
