District 113A Board Hosts Another Virtual Referendum Info Session

LEMONT, IL — The Lemont-Bromberek School District 113A Board of Education will host another virtual information session to share information and answer questions about the April referendum. The session will be held at 7 p.m. Feb. 23.

According to the district, the question on the ballot on April 6 would allow the district to reopen Central School, add a full-day kindergarten program and reduce class sizes throughout its schools.

An approved referendum would not lead to an effective property tax increase for district residents, the district said in a release. Although the board does propose a 29 cent operating rate increase, the amount would be offset by a reduction in the levy for the debt service fund. As a result, taxpayers would still see a net decrease of approximately 6.8 percent in the District 113A portion of their property tax bills.
