A bill introduced in the Maryland General Assembly would authorize borrowing up to 1.6 million dollars to build a consolidated senior high school in central Caroline County and replace the Federalsburg building. A special election would let voters decide the funding, with analysis of current debt, interest, and potential state aid considered.

He supports a referendum to let voters decide, warns taxes would rise if approved, and urges the Commissioners to present clear facts before the special election.
