If you're wondering how Tuesday's vote landed: Collin County voters rejected all four propositions in the $817.5 million bond package. The money would have gone to roads, jail and courthouse space, parks and a new elections building. Officials said it was needed to keep pace with growth, and the Census Bureau ranked Collin the nation's second fastest-growing county between 2024 and 2025.

Approval would not have triggered an immediate property tax increase. Projections showed the debt service rate could reach 4.95 cents over the six-year bond period.
