TURNER Voters in Turner, Leeds and Greene will vote next week on a $28.3 million school budget for 2021-22.
The Maine School Administrative District 52 budget vote will be held at 6 p.m. Thursday in the Leavitt Area High School auditorium. Members of the public will need to wear face coverings, Superintendent Kimberly Brandt said.
Though the board of directors held the increase over this fiscal year to 0.85%, the tax impact has gone from nearly nothing this fiscal year to an average 3.64% increase in the proposed budget.
