The Buford City Commission voted Monday to approve the sale of $33 million in General Obligation Bonds for the construction of the new Buford High School. Buford residents voted overwhelmingly in March to approve up to $35 million in bonds for the school to be built on 30 acres adjacent to Buford Elementary School and the current Buford High School.
Buford currently holds $14 million in sales tax funds and approximately $8 million in growth funds set aside for the construction. Current plans anticipate the new $50 million high school could open for the 2017-18 school year.
