East Troy Schools Referendums Both Fail
Two referendums for the East Troy Community School District both failed.
Facing a financial squeeze with state revenue caps not allowing it to keep pace with rising expenses, the first question asked voters to approve an operational levy for a five year term.
A second question also appeared on the ballot seeking $8 million for a wide range of capital projects.
