In Collin County, voters turned down more than $1.4 billion in bonds Tuesday. All four propositions in the county's $817.5 million package failed. So did Collin College's separate $600 million bond, which about 52% of voters opposed, according to unofficial results.

The package would have funded projects from fiscal 2027 through 2032. Local Profile reported that approval wouldn't have meant an immediate tax hike. The debt service rate is 4.18 cents per $100 of assessed value, and projections showed it could reach 4.95 cents.
