(KMZA)--It will be Monday before the outcome of a $26.4 million bond issue to fund facility improvements in the Marysville school district is known.
Unofficial results during Tuesday’s special election had the bond issue being approved by a 7-vote margin, with 819 votes cast in the favor of the proposal to 812 against.
However, there were 45 provisional ballots cast which will have an impact on the final official vote tally. A provisional ballot is used to record a vote when there are questions about a given voter’s eligibility.
The Marshall County Commission, meeting as a canvassing board Monday, will determine how many of the provisional ballots will be counted based on state statute.
The Marshall County Clerk’s office reports a 48 percent voter turnout during Tuesday’s election.
The bond issue would fund improvements to the Marysville Elementary School and the Junior/Senior High School.
The bonds would be paid off over a 30-year period. It would require a bond and interest levy of an estimated 14.84 mills.
