LOS ALAMITOS
Administrators with the Orange County High School of the Arts said they would apply for state funding to build a high school despite a City Council decision to sue the district in an effort to block the project.
“We’re moving ahead, business as usual,” said Ralph S. Opacic, executive director of the arts program.
The city is objecting because the Los Alamitos Unified School District failed to complete the state’s environmental quality review process. The district has countered that it does not have to complete an environmental impact report before building an $18-million complex on Bloomfield Street for students studying the performing and fine arts.
