HUNTERSVILLE – Tuesday’s election saw the town’s $30 million bond referendum pass by wide margins.

The town’s $17.85 million general obligation bond for streets passed by a 67.88-32.12 percent margin.

The $7.15 million public improvement bond passed by a 68.11-31.89 percent margin, and the $5 million parks and recreation bond passed by a 65.79-34.21 percent amount.
