Voters in the Suttons Bay Public School district will head to the polls on May 7 for a special election to vote on an $18.34 million bond proposal for facility improvements.
Suttons Bay School Superintendent Casey Petz said the bond proposal passage would allow the district to address issues related to “campus safety and security, energy utilization and management, replacement of boilers, and removal and replacement of infrastructure that is outdated, reached the end of its expected service life, or in a state of disrepair.”
“Specifically, the bond proposal seeks approval to tear down and replace the existing middle school gym on the north end of campus,” Petz said in an email. “This gym is used by students, staff, and our community nearly every day of the year and was identified by our facilities needs assessment as an area of concern if it is to continue to be used in the years ahead.”
