What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Voters in New Hampshire towns and cities will vote on a ballot question that proposes limiting property tax growth for local school districts. If passed, the measure would restrict property tax increases to inflation and new construction, limit central office spending to 6% of the total budget, and exempt capital costs covered by bonds. For districts covering multiple towns, 60% of voters across both communities would need to vote yes for the cap to apply.
