Of particular interest to Fremont residents in Measure M, a bond issue placed on the ballot by Fremont Unified School District.

The bond aims to raise $919 million for infrastructure improvements. If passed, the measure would fund renovations to aging school facilities, technology upgrades, and construction of new classrooms to accommodate student enrollment.

According to the filing, "The best estimate of total debt service, including principal and interest, that would be required to be repaid if all the bonds are issued and sold will be approximately $2.0 billion."
