Last night, the budget revote for the Blue Mountain Union School District passed by a hair, with only 2 votes making the difference.
After a mixed response from the community at the informational meeting, the outcome of the vote was certainly unexpected.
The original budget of 12.8 million did not pass by 7 votes and the new budget that was proposed is $100k less, at 12.7 million.
The outcome of last night’s vote was 219 to 217, a very close victory for the school’s budget.
With the budget secured, the school can move forward in the fiscal year.
