• Proposed $86.1 Million Referendum Would Greatly Expedite Needed Repairs, Bordentown Schools Superintendent Says at Public Forum (TAPinto.net) — Bordentown Regional School District is asking voters to approve an $86.1 million referendum that would fast-track critical repairs like roof, HVAC, and safety upgrades in all district schools. If it passes, homeowners in Bordentown City, Bordentown Township, and Fieldsboro would see notable monthly tax increases for about 20 years, but officials say reduced repair costs could free more money for instruction and programs.
