The Oswego County BOCES referendum was defeated Wednesday, almost two to one by voters in the BOCES district. According to the BOCES Web site, 2,810 voters said “no†to the project over 1,543 voters who supported the plan.
The proposed project includes renovation of approximately 196,000 existing square feet as well as adding approximately 70,000 square feet of new space. The new space essentially replaces several buildings that are no longer suitable for use, according to Dr. Joseph Camerino, BOCES district superintendent.
Oswego County BOCES will host a public vote this fall, seeking approval for a proposed $48.4 million capital project. Officials explain that the project focuses overall on improvements and renovations to enhance safety, security and technology at the campus.
