City Manager Approval:
Item to be presented by:
CONSENT CALENDAR
DATE: August 24, 1999
SUBJECT: SUPPORT FOR SCHOOL DISTRICT BOND
RESOLUTION NO. 99-152
DEPARTMENT: City Council
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council officially supports the William S. Hart High School District Bond
Measure by approving Resolution No. 99-152.
BACKGROUND
The William S. Hart High School District will be placing a bond on the November
1999 ballot for district approval. The bond is intended to help the district raise
funds in order to build and upgrade much-needed schools, classrooms, and program
facilities. The School District recognizes that the growing student population
coupled with the age and lack of certain facilities makes this bond necessary. In
addition, the School District has the potential for attaining State funds with the
successful passage of the school bond. It is proposed that the following projects
would be funded through a bond measure:
• Adding classrooms
• Building new schools
• Repairing and replacing old, deteriorated electrical and plumbing systems
• Replacing and renovating outdated science labs
• Providing up-to-date access to technology
• Repairing and replacing old, worn-out roofs
• Repairing aging heating and air conditioning systems
• Providing a safe school environment
As a result Councilmember Frank Ferry is proposing that the Santa Clarita City
Council officially support the bond measure in November of 1999.
