No contribution or expenditure of district funds shall be made directly by any board member, employee or agent of the district to advocate, support or oppose the passage or defeat of any ballot measure or the nomination or election of any candidate for public office. District funds also cannot be provided to any committee supporting or opposing a ballot measure or candidate or be used to pay any debts or obligations of any committee. This does not prevent board members or administrators from making public appearances or issuing press releases concerning any such ballot measures.

Reasonable expenditures may be made solely for the purpose of providing patrons of the district with objective information regarding ballot measures to inform voters concerning issues that directly affect the district.
