Schools Chief Appoints Panel to Oversee Proposed Bond Funds
- Share via
The superintendent of the Torrance Unified School District has appointed an ad-hoc committee of 15 residents to oversee how bond money, which has yet to be approved by voters, would be spent.
In June, voters failed to pass an $80.5-million bond measure for school improvements. But the school board last week decided to try again and put another $80.5-million general obligation bond issue on the Nov. 4 ballot. The school bond issue requires a two-thirds majority to pass. In June, it got 57% of the yes vote.
The committee will advise the school board about which campuses should be improved if the bond money becomes available.
The committee is scheduled to hold its second meeting tonight.
