La Canada School Bond Headed for Easy Victory
A $6-million school bond measure to renovate campuses and build classrooms appeared headed to easy victory in balloting Tuesday.
With eight precincts reporting, 80% of voters supported Measure A and 20% opposed it. The measure requires the support of more than two thirds of voters to succeed.
It will cost property owners in the district $8.84 per $100,000 of assessed value, district officials said.
Proponents said the money would be used to replace plumbing, roofing and heating and ventilation systems, to build a new high school library and bring schools into compliance with the latest state earthquake and fire codes. The money also would qualify the district for $9.5 million in state funds.
