New Compromise Offered for Tustin Base
Santa Ana Unified School District and the city of Tustin agreed Monday to postpone their latest court showdown over the closed Tustin Marine base to allow the district time to study a new compromise offered by the city, district attorneys said.
Tustin agreed in May to pay Santa Ana Unified $60 million for the latter’s claim to land at the base.
At issue is how Tustin will guarantee payment. The school district wants a letter of credit; Tustin is seeking a less costly alternative. Both parties are due back in court Dec. 17.
