Bond issue passes for Edgewood-Colesburg

Voters in the Edgewood-Colesburg school district have approved a two-point-two million dollar bond issue to help school projects. 40-percent of voters went to the polls yesterday, passing the measure by a margin of 651-to-149. The bond issue will finance a new single-level addition to the junior-senior high building in Edgewood, replacing the current three-story addition, built in 1924. It also includes a plan to remodel locker rooms at the junior-senior high and to remodel an elementary school classroom in Colesburg as a day care center.
