The Middleton-Cross Plains School District Referendum was a school bond measure on the April 7 ballot in the Middleton-Cross Plains School District which is in Dane County. The referendum was brought to the ballot by the school board, and it sought to issue debt in the amount of $33,980,000. The bond monies would be used to remodel, rebuild and equip Kromrey Middle School. The district retained Bray Architects in June of 2008 to "provide programming, referendum support, architectural / engineering, and interior design services for the District's proposed building projects." ^[1]

This measure is one of three on the April 7 ballot in the Middleton-Cross Plains School District. The others are Middleton-Cross Plains School District Bond (2009) and Middleton-Cross Plains Exceed Revenue Limits Referendum (2009). None of the three measures passed.

Status

Defeated, along with the other two measures from the district. There were 5,008 "yes" votes and 5,425 "no" votes. ^[2] ^[3]
