| UPDATE: Chisago Lakes puts brakes on fall levy week after approving it | EDITOR'S NOTE: This story covers the Wednesday, June 9 special meeting and appeared in our Thursday, June 17 issue. During the Chisago Lakes' School Board regular meeting on Thursday, June 17, the board voted to rescind the motion to go for a fall levy after meeting with consultants, who informed them the short timeline would not work.
The board still plans to go for a levy in 2022, but they wanted to make sure this wasn't a rushed process and did not set a specific 2022 date for a levy vote.
