A candidates forum for the Auburn Enlarged City School District Board of Education was held on May 1, ahead of the May 20 election, where voters will decide on a proposed $107 million budget, a $7.2 million air-handling referendum, and school board seats. The budget proposal included a 3.25% tax levy increase, remaining under the 3.78% state-mandated cap. Three incumbents — Daniel Lovell, James Van Arsdale, and Danielle Woods — sought re-election, while a fourth seat, vacated by Freddie Wilson III, was also up for grabs. Candidates Lovell, Van Arsdale, former board member William Andre, and Frederick Cornelius participated in the forum, moderated by Robert Harding, government and politics reporter for The Citizen.
