School bond issue split urged after narrow defeat
The board discussed splitting the program on the ballot after a close defeat with residents unhappy over presentation. Patsalos and Richchi urged separate votes for schools and library projects, while Porich pressed for action and a new referendum timing remains undecided. The panel approved four relocatable classrooms for Vails Gate at 69 435 and argued the district needs both schools and office facilities to support 17 schools, 12 000 students, and 625 teachers with a 13 million annual budget.

Walden lake may open July 1 amid parking concerns
Walden's 10 acre man made lake faces funding and access doubts as Village Manager Curtis Olsen says it may open July 1. Trustees question parking capacity and long term financial viability while the lake fills from a 400 acre watershed and a standby caisson well supplements flow. Non residents would pay for swimming with a daily or seasonal rate as the park plans June openings and Memorial Day to Labor Day season.
