Laurel group protests central school plan in Laurel County
About 25 Laurel taxpayers form the Laurel Area Citizens Chapter led by Ruscoe Clement to oppose a proposed central elementary school building. They prefer repairing existing schools, challenge Rossi’s poll showing 67 percent support for a new school, and warn of a tax hike up to 15 mills to fund a $1 million bond. Superintendent Haddad says no decisions have been made and Rossi’s sample aimed to reflect the community.
