Central Bucks School District has announced that its “Update the Eight” renovation plan has been paused. The district held months of meetings and developed architectural plans for the multimillion dollar renovation proposal for eight of its elementary schools. A letter sent by Superintendent Steve Yanni says the pause is economic: “The bond market, which we rely on to finance construction, is currently experiencing significant instability. Proceeding with a large-scale borrowing under these conditions could lead to higher costs or financial strain in our communities.” Renovations at the district’s high schools will go forward.
