Byron voters will decide whether to approve a $41 million bond referendum for their school district in May.
The Byron School Board approved a motion to present the proposed referendum to voters during its Monday meeting. The board members approved it with a 6-1 vote. The special election will take place nearly a year to the day after Byron residents turned down a similar, slightly more expensive bond referendum.
