*Voters decided on Tuesday that they did not support a big package of $127 million being spent to improve facilities in the South Sioux City School District.
After days of early voting,the school bond measure received an affirmative vote of only 41 percent.
School officials and community members pitched the plan to add modern facilities in the district with growing enrollment and some aging buildings. The enrollment is projected to grow from the current 3,800 to about 4,300 within the next 10 years.
Four new schools would have been built for children in grades below middle school.
