Committee recommends no Columbus Schools levy in November

A Columbus Schools advisory committee voted this morning against placing a levy on the November ballot.  The committee says the district is fully funded for two school years. 

District administrators have said voters would have to approve a levy no later than November 2013 to avoid budget cuts. The Columbus School board is scheduled to hold a special meeting tonight to consider the committee's recommendation.
