Elementary school referendum
Because of the overcrowding in the elementary schools, a referendum for building a new elementary school was on the April 1, 2008 ballot and was voted down.[2] The option was again given to residents on November 4, but was voted down, with 58% of voters saying no because of tax hike fears.[3]
