Patriot-News: CD faces tough budget decisions

Tough economic times could force Central Dauphin School Board to consider some serious and painful possibilities, ranging from closing an elementary school to increasing some class sizes to corral costs, according to a story penned by Patriot-News crack beat reporter T.W. Burger.

In a related issue mentioned on Linglestown Gazette yesterday, board member Christian Malesic offered a no-tax-increase amendment, but it failed by a 5-3 vote, with Malesic, Justin McShane, and Michael Brehm voting in favor.

Also as mentioned on this blog Monday, the board approved an energy audit of the district's 19 buildings.

Hat tip to Malesic for calling me Monday with a preview of key agenda items. I had forgotten that last night's meeting was on this week's government meeting schedule.
