On Tuesday, the River Valley School Board voted to realign the voting districts, distributing the population equally across all the voting districts.
Board President Rick Harper said that the changes included an expansion of Region 3 to the East, Region 2 to include most of Blairsville Borough, and Region 1 added a portion of Burrell Township. The vote went five to four with Beverly Carnese, Jessica Clawson, Melanie Pantalone and Nathan Baird voting against it. Harper said that the previous voting district map was not in line with the district’s constitution.
In other business, the board by the same margin approved a proposal from Sport Floors to refinish the Saltsburg Gym Floor in an amount not to exceed $24,939.
