LCHS Alpine: The canopy over the lunch has been completed. The solar panels are going offline. The district is investigating and contracting with a vendor to fix the problem. This should lessen temporarily our $2500 monthly solar charge from the district.

The hearing for the CUP amendment may be scheduled for Oct 17 but will more likely be in November due to the new traffic study. On site meeting with architect for the ADA work on the Freedom House is being scheduled.
Primary Academy: The church's solar project is near its completion. We continue to try and solve the mysterious leaking roof in the main office. Traffic plan approved by city traffic and now part of the current CUP.
