Fairview Park rejects school levy again
In Fairview Park voters defeated a 5.4 mill operating levy for city schools for the second time in four months, with 2,494 opposed to 1,638 in a turnout that widened the margin from June. Superintendent John Babel Jr. cites inflation as a pressure on the district budget and says the levy would have generated about $830,000 annually to carry the schools through three years. The levy may return on the November 4 ballot after the board authorized another placement.
