The Washington Elementary School District Governing Board, at its May 24 regular meeting, passed a resolution ordering and calling a special Maintenance and Operations Budget Override election. An M&O override is a special election, called by a school district governing board, which asks voters within the district to approve additional maintenance and operations funding for their local schools, earmarked for specific educational purposes and generated through local property tax levies. The maximum amount for an M&O override is 15 percent of the district’s Revenue Control Limit.
