Fall Referendum?

Channel3000:

A resolution for a referendum will go before the Madison school board Monday night.
The West-Memorial Task Force has recommended an addition to Leopold and to build a new school on the far west side of the city.
The Long Range Planning Committee chairman said there's not enough time to build a campaign for the April election, but a referendum is inevitable.
"I still believe Madison voters do not understand the need for those new schools," said chairman Bill Keys. "The population has shifted dramatically from the East to West side in terms of raw numbers."
Keys believes the board may push for a fall referendum.
Keys told WISC-TV he wouldn't be around for the final decisions because he plans to retire by then.
