Finally… found some more information on the Kent County Daily Times website. Appears that it’s one bond, with multiple items. Here’s the interesting part:
“On Jan. 23, Coventry residents will have the opportunity to vote for or against a municipal bond request of $19.8 million. If the bond is approved, $9 million will go to the schools.

Michael Hobin, principal of the high school, says the bond would give the schools the finances to meet state-mandated fire codes, and to improve the learning environment.”

So, just to make sure you’re paying attention, that’s 9 million for the schools roofing, fire code upgrades, and “to improve the learning environment”? What specifically is “improving the learning environment”? And how much of the 9 million will that take?

More importantly the article leaves out where a mere $10.8 million will be spent.

That’s the 10.8 million reasons why I’m voting no. Read the whole article at the Kent Count Daily Times website.
