The Board announced on Monday that on Tuesday, April 10, members of community will be asked to vote on a $9,987,000 capital bond project that includes the addition of a second story at William E. Cottle Elementary School, construction of a new security vestibule at Cottle and a turf field replacement and communication system replacement at the school.

If passed, officials said the cost of the project for a home with an assessed value of $8,500 would be $254 annually; however, due to the retirement of existing debt, the impact is expected to be closer to $60 for year one and two before becoming cost neutral.

Voting will be held from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. on April 10 at Cottle and the Tuckahoe Community Center.
