School Budget Vote May 10 - Make your voice heard!

School Budget Vote May 10

Next month, Portland voters will be asked to approve the Portland Public School System's budget in a citywide referendum. Maine’s School Administrative Reorganization Law now requires all school districts to hold elections for approval of their budgets. The budget must be approved by a majority of voters.

Voters will be asked:
1) Do you favor approving the Portland School Budget for the upcoming school year that was adopted at the latest City Council budget meeting?

Detailed information about the Portland school budget may be found on the Portland Public Schools Web site at http://www.portlandschools.org/

All qualified residents of the City of Portland are encouraged to vote. Absentee ballots are available upon request and can be returned to the City Clerk’s office in City Hall from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM and must be returned by May 10. Residents can register to vote in person at the City Clerk’s office or on the day of election at their polling place.


All local polling places will be open from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM. For more detailed information about where or how to vote, contact the City Clerk’s office at 874-8677 or visit their webpage at http://www.portlandmaine.gov/voter/voter.asp
