Board of Education asks for referendum on new early education building; town halls planned
Summary
The Clementon Board of Education revisited plans for a new early education facility and said a public referendum on election day should decide financing; the mayor and council agreed to hold joint town-hall meetings with the board to outline options.
The Clementon Board of Education presented an update on plans for a new early education building and said the community should decide financing by referendum on election day, according to the board and Mayor Thomas Weaver.
Mayor Weaver and members of the borough council agreed to host joint town-hall meetings with the Board of Education to explain the proposed project and financing choices to residents. The board’s presentation revisited project objectives and financing options but did not specify a final funding package or dollar amounts at this meeting.
The exchange produced an agreement to coordinate outreach: the mayor and council will join the Board of Education in public town halls to provide residents with information ahead of the referendum. No formal vote on a funding measure occurred during the caucus meeting; the board indicated the referendum would appear on the election-day ballot pending further procedural steps and approvals.
