After being sent away for repair earlier this year, Winthrop's four electric school buses have failed inspections after they were returned recently, prompting Maine State Police inspectors to deem them unsafe to drive in their current condition.
Superintendent Jim Hodgkin is expected to present the budget to the Town Council in mid-May, and a public vote on the spending plan is scheduled for June 11.
Winthrop, Vinalhaven and Yarmouth reported problems last fall with electric school buses, and the Maine Department of Education is advising all Lion Electric Co. buses be parked until further inspections are done.
