The Boyne City Board of Education voted unanimously Dec. 9 to approve a bond resolution to conduct an election in May 2025. The motion was made by Sara Ward and seconded by Mary Towne; the roll-call vote recorded six yeas and zero nays.
Public comment during the meeting focused on the bond proposal. Chris Christensen said the district should "concentrate on the 'needs' and not the 'wants.'" Chuck Vondra urged the board to scale the proposal to essential needs, and Erin Mastin, speaking as a teacher and parent, said the elementary expansion and reorganization "is a need and not a want."
