Roberta Paolo addressed the Board regarding the failed levy

On November 19, before a packed, stand on the furniture in the back room house, Roberta Paolo took to the open forum microphone to express views on the recently failed levy that was on the November 5 ballot. The Board asked voters to approve issuing bonds for $118,515,000 and a combined operating and bond levy of 16.78-mill. The levy was rejected by voters 78-22 per-cent.
