Summary

On August 7, 2007, Beaver Island voters approved the school rebuilding bond proposal by 204 votes to 138. The school board and architects then moved into the next phase of defining the facility and communicating with the public.

Evidence limits

The result does not establish the final design, construction schedule, or eventual project cost. The forum announcement corroborates the vote total and next-stage planning but is not the official canvass.

  3. School-board communication posted the day after the election gives the same final 204–138 result and says the board and BETA Design would continue public planning. This is strong contemporaneous institutional communication, but not the official canvass or ballot certification.
