Central Maine votes: Local election results from across the region
Voters across the Augusta and Waterville areas went to the polls in Tuesday's referendum to decide the fate of school budgets, ordinances, projects and elect public officials.
The failure to pass the budget comes on the heels of the district reversing several aspects of a controversial administrative restructuring plan that led to a public outcry.
Townspeople voted against the proposal, 332-72, which had called for the town spending up to $25,000 of its undesignated funds to "contract for the engineering and costing" of the building.
Incumbent selectmen Betty Austin and Paul York returned to office for three-year terms while incumbent school board directors Jennifer Poirier and Karen Smith will return for three-year terms.
Voters in Tuesday's referendum also elected Andrew Ballantyne as a selectmen, who received 175 votes to David Coons’ 57 votes, and at Wednesday's town meeting approved all proposed budget articles.
