School board keeps transportation policy after public turnout
In Troy the school board voted five to three with one abstention to extend current transportation policy for another year amid taxpayer rejection of a proposed tax increase. District savings from planned lunch transportation cuts and longer distance limits total nearly $300,000, with further program cuts likely before next Tuesday’s budget finalization. Eugene Eaton, 37, state attorney general investigator, was named the Republican sheriff nominee after Donald Gutbradt withdrew. Eaton had failed to unseat incumbent William A. R. Harkness in a prior race, saying the office should serve the general public beyond policing.
