Northside ISD employees face higher health premiums as voters weigh tax increase

Northside ISD voters will decide Nov. 3 whether to approve a 3-cent increase to the district's maintenance and operations tax rate per $100 of property valuation.

If approved, the increase would help fund a 2% pay raise for all district employees.

The measure, known as a voter-approval tax rate election, or VATRE, is on the ballot alongside a separate bond package.
