At a special election on Feb. 11, Hopedale voters approved a ballot question to replace the failing roof at the Hopedale Junior-Senior High School. 

On the town’s website, the Town Clerk reported that 367 votes were cast, or 8.32% of the town’s 4,412 registered voters. The vote was 234 in favor and 133 opposed. 

Debt exclusions require that the question pass in a town election and at Town Meeting. 

A Special Town Meeting in November supported the $4.1 million debt exclusion, which will now be added to $1.8 million that had been appropriated in 2023.
