Board studies a possible spring 2027 facilities referendum

What happened
On Aug. 10 the board approved a facilities study to consider a potential facilities referendum. At the Sept. 28 meeting notes said the board is considering a referendum next spring, with architects from LHB holding information sessions for staff and the community the next day.
Why it matters to families
A facilities referendum would ask voters to pay more property tax for building projects, so families will want to follow the plan and cost.
The evidence
The Aug. 10 minutes record the vote; the Sept. 28 recording and minutes describe the possible spring timing and sessions. No amount or ballot language is posted yet.
