Windham and Raymond voters approved a $42.1 million budget for Regional School Unit 14 on Tuesday by a vote of 556-241.

The vote was 165-108 in Windham and 391-133 in Raymond.

The budget for the fiscal year starting July 1 increases spending by $1 million, 2.4 percent, over the current budget. It will increase annual property tax bills in Windham by $40 per $100,000 valuation. Because the district has changed its cost-sharing formula, Raymond’s annual tax bills will decrease 1 cent per $100,000 in real estate value.

Raymond voters also re-elected Selectman Joe Bruno in a close race with Louise Lester; the vote was 273-243. And they rejected a proposal to withdraw from RSU 14, by a vote of 376-136.
