In addition to the dozens of candidates and statewide initiatives on this year’s ballot, voters in several parts of the county were tasked with answering additional questions about funding for their communities and schools.

Tucson Spotlight previously reported on ballot propositions in Sahuarita, South Tucson, Marana, Green Valley and the Amphitheater school district, with the results mixed as of Wednesday.

In some districts, voters were hesitant to approve additional funding through the sale of bonds, while other areas saw voters eager to sign on in support.

Here’s where the votes have been cast so far:

Sahuarita

In Sahuarita, voters had five additional questions on their ballot, including Prop 403, which would authorize the town to issue and sell up to $66 million in general obligation bonds, and four additional propositions about utility franchise agreements for natural gas and water.

Prop 403 was supported by just 39% of voters as of Wednesday, but Propositions 404 through 407, the utility franchise agreements, were all passing with more than 65% of voter approval.

South Tucson

Over in South Tucson, voters were asked to decide on Propositions 408 and 409. A “yes” vote on Prop 408 would extend the town’s alternative expenditure limit and Prop 409 would authorize the town to issue and sell up to $6 million in general obligation bonds.

Prop 408’s budget override was passing with 64% of the vote, as was Prop 409, which had so far earned 59% of voters’ approval.

Marana

Residents in the Marana Unified School District found Prop 411 on their ballots, a 5% increase to the district's existing 10% Maintenance and Operation Budget.

The proposition was narrowly passing Wednesday, with 52% of voters answering “yes.”

Green Valley

Green Valley residents were asked to decide on an override for the Continental Elementary School District. Prop 410 would allow for a 1% increase to the existing 14% Maintenance and Operation Budget override for the district’s only elementary school.

Prop 410 was also narrowly passing, with 51% of voters approving the increase.

Amphi

Voters in the Amphitheater Unified School District found two propositions on their ballots. Prop 412, an $84 million bond package for school improvements, and Prop 413,  a continuation of the district’s existing 13.5% Maintenance and Operation budget.

Both propositions were passing as of Wednesday, with 55% of voters saying “yes” to Prop 412 and 54% approving Prop 413.
