School Bond Measure to Go on June Ballot
Voters in the Hacienda La Puente School District on June 6 will decide the fate of a $100-million school bond measure to modernize and renovate aging campuses.
The Board of Education unanimously approved the measure’s placement on the June ballot.
“In order to learn well, students need safe, adequately lit and ventilated classrooms with appropriate technology,” said board President Joseph Chang.
School officials said passage of a $100-million bond measure would also make the Hacienda La Puente School District eligible to apply for $56 million in state modernization funds.
The bond, if approved, would cost local property owners an estimated $58 a year per $100,000 of assessed value, officials said.
