Beecher-Dunbar-Pembine School District will again ask voters to approve an operational referendum for the next five years. The last attempt, during the Nov. 5 general election, failed with 689 yes to 745 no.

District Administrator Lynn Stankevich, in an interview last month with The Daily News, said passage of the referendum is needed “to keep our doors open.”

The referendum seeks to exceed the district revenue limit by $800,000 for the next five years. The current $575,000 per year referendum ends June 30, so it would be an increase of $225,000, or 39 cents per $1,000 of property value.

Operational referendums for Niagara, Florence County and Goodman-Armstrong Creek schools were approved in the Nov. 5 general election.

DESHEA MORROW

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday.
