WHA SCHOOL LEVY FAILS BY LESS THAN 1%

More voters in the Walker-Hackensack-Akeley School District levy referendum said 'no' than 'yes' in last night's special election; 18 more. The final vote was 992 in favor of the levy increase and 1010 against. The district is in statutory operating debt and will have to cut next year's budget by $1.2-Million. The current district budget is roughly $10-Million. The levy issue would have raised approximately $5.5-Million over the next ten years.
