Little Falls School District Capital Improvement Project

planned

The Little Falls school district in Passaic County, New Jersey, is using a new state law to finance a $36 million capital improvement project through the Passaic County Improvement Authority, bypassing voter referendums. The project includes expansions and improvements to three schools to address increased class sizes and state mandates for all-day pre-kindergarten classes. The financing involves the county authority owning and leasing the project to the district until the debt is paid, after which the facilities will be returned to the district.
