The Melrose community overwhelmingly voted against a $25.7-$28.8 million referendum for Melrose Schools on Thursday. A two-part question was on the ballot. The first asked for $24.9 million towards construction, plus $800,000 in bonding costs.
The body found off the Lake Wobegon Trail in Melrose on Sunday night has been identified. In a news release, Melrose Police Chief Craig Maus says the man was identified as 22-year-old Edgar Juarez.
