Westmont’s Community Unit School District 201 will once again ask voters to approve a referendum aimed at improving safety and security at school buildings in the district. Superintendent Kevin Carey and the district held an informational meeting on Oct. 1 to inform the community about the referendum, as well as how it will affect them and the district. The referendum, which will appear on the Nov. 4 ballot, will ask voters to approve the issuance of bonds in the amount of $26 million to complete a number of safety, security and renovation projects to buildings in the district. >> see referendum | page 4
