Board announces consolidated polling locations; previews December referendum on two electric buses
Summary
The superintendent announced consolidated polling locations intended to reduce voter confusion amid local construction and said current school buses are diesel; he also said the district plans a December referendum for two electric buses and will notify voters by postcard.
The superintendent announced that the district will have three polling locations to reduce confusion caused by construction and site work in Brewerton, consolidating town voting locations to a consistent site (for example, Brewerton voters will use the Brewerton Fire Department site). He said postcards from NTS will notify voters where to vote and that the change aims to avoid confusion tied to temporary bridge work and spring road construction.
On transportation and buses, the superintendent clarified that "All of the buses are diesel. They are not electric," and said the district plans to put a referendum in December of the next school year to seek approval for two electric buses; he emphasized that the December timing is intentional to avoid conflating the electric-bus question with the immediate referendum. The board discussed costs for polling logistics and rental equipment.
