District news
Voters decide a $2 million-a-year operating referendum on Nov. 3
What happened
The board voted on August 10, 2026 to put a question on the November 3 ballot letting the district go $2,000,000 a year over its revenue limit for four years, for non-recurring purposes. It had passed similar resolutions on January 26 for the April 7 ballot. The annual meeting agenda has one tax levy with the referendum and one without.
Why it matters to families
Wisconsin limits how much property tax a district can raise. If the question fails, the district has said it must plan cuts.
