"Residents sue Orono schools, claim referendum not conducted correctly"
"Seven Orono School District residents filed a lawsuit Tuesday alleging that the district's recent $39 million bond referendum should have been conducted by mail instead of at a polling place in the school district's main office.
The suit claims that the west-metro district's Feb. 12 vote violated a state law that requires any referendum not held on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November be carried out by mail, unless a district is in statutory operating debt." More
Orono's voters approved a referendum by a vote of 1,845 to 1,713.
