By a narrow margin, just 16 votes, voters in the Mountain Home School District have rejected a proposal to increase the district’s millage rate. In Tuesday’s special election, there were 1,592 votes in favor of the measure and 1,608 against it.
Registered voters in the school district were asked to decide on a proposed increase of 2 1/4 mills. If it had been approved, funds would have gone toward a construction and renovation project at Mountain Home High School Career Academies.
Tuesday’s election results are unofficial until they are certified by the Baxter County Election Commission.
