MISHAWAKA, Ind. - Officials with the School City of Mishawaka hope taxpayers will vote to keep funding a referendum that's on the ballot in the May election.

The school district wants voters to renew the current referendum, not introduce a new one. Renewing the referendum will not increase tax rates, according to reports.

If passed, the referendum will be extended another eight years.
