Mapleton School Vote Results In; New School Not Approved

KVRR has just learned the vote is ‘no’ for a $7.2 million dollar school bond referendum.

A school official says they will release results of the voting tomorrow but does confirm the measure has failed.

People in the town were weighing in on a $7.2 million school bond referendum for a new school.

The current school was built in 1924.

The polls closed at 7 p.m.

If approved, owners of a $100,000 home would have paid around $340 more per year in property taxes.

Sixty percent of yes votes were needed to pass the referendum.
