(KNZA)--Voters in the Riverside school district during a special election Tuesday said "yes” to a capital outlay levy.
Unofficial results show the levy being approved by a 94 vote margin, with 332 votes cast in favor of the levy to 238 against.
The district was granted the authority to levy up to 3.6 mills for a period of four years.
USD 114 patrons last August defeated a levy proposal by a narrow margin.
The Riverside school district is currently among only seven districts in the state without a capital outlay levy.
The current source of revenue for the capital outlay fund is an annual transfer from the district’s general fund budget.
School officials says the capital outlay levy will allow the district to replace aging roofs, vehicles, school busses, HVAC units, technology and flooring.
