Left–right lean

Not a left–right issue: a procedural or local question that liberals and conservatives don't typically split on (AI read of the official ballot summary).

The YES and NO lines are SpectrumVote's plain-language reading of the official text above; the official text is what you vote on.

Background

The question would fund a new elementary school at the C.E. Miller site to replace the J.T. Manning and C.E. Miller buildings, according to the ballot language.

The Village of Westmont, which says it cannot advocate for or against the question, says the village and district have a downtown TIF agreement that sets aside some revenue for the Manning School property, and that an updated agreement is expected if the schools are consolidated at the Miller site.

Put on the ballot by Westmont CUSD 201 Board of Education (resolution and vote not reachable: district website returned a TLS certificate error).
