A Referendum Reflection with White Bear Lake

In this episode, we’ll discuss the 2019 White Bear Lake referendum experience with Kraus-Anderson's retired director of K-12 project planning and development, Tony Sjolander, and Tim Wald from the White Bear Lake School District. While work is in full swing and the new high school is being built, we wanted to hear from Tony and Tim as they reflect on the referendum experience. We discussed the process and details of what went into passing the referendum, the challenges they faced in communicating the District’s needs to the community, and the planning it took to pass the (now second) largest referendum in Minnesota's history.
