Big building and bond plan on the table

The Eldora New Providence school board has mapped out its strategy for enlisting the community in a major bond issue to help update a substantial part of the district’s property in the City of Eldora.

The district needed to garner 175 signatures to have the issue posted on the coming school ballot in September. And now the vote is set for Sept. 13.

At issue are large-scale upgrades to the school’s elementary and high school though the upgrades would come with a hike in property taxes.
