Murra surprised by Bond vote

GRUNDY CENTER — Grundy Center Community School District Superintendent Cassi Murra admitted being surprised by the result of last Tuesday’s bond election but vowed to continue to assess the district’s facilities needs.
    Voters overwhelmingly turned down the proposal, which would have allowed the District to build a classroom addition onto its elementary building and both a practice gymnasium and fine arts addition onto the secondary building. Needing 60 percent support to pass, the bond issue drew yes votes from just 412 of the 975 voters who gave an opinion on the measure.
