Midview board narrows search for treasurer
GRAFTON The Midview school district narrowed its treasurer candidate list to five and will interview at least four at a 5 p m special meeting led by President James Couch. Most of the session is executive. Couch said names were unavailable Monday with 10 applicants for the post created by Rebecca Petrona’s resignation effective Aug. 1. The new treasurer faces preparing the district to borrow under the state loan program, depending on an August 9.9 mill three year levy. If the levy fails, $700,000 to $1.1 million may be needed by June 30, 1994. if it passes, borrowing could be halved. The levy would bring about $1.6 million annually. The district has cut costs, adopted a pay to participate policy, closed Belden Elementary, trimmed classes and supply purchases, and now has 21 fewer teachers than in 1991. Board members could not be reached for comment.
