Castaic Council likes Romero

(From the Signal) The Castaic Area Town Council has endorsed the Romero Canyon site as a location for the future Castaic high school. Romero Canyon, owned by developer Larry Rasmussen, is one of two sites being considered by the William S. Hart Union High School for the long-promised school, which has been planned for some 10 years but still lacks a location.

But some Castaic residents, including those on the site-advisory committee who voted against the endorsement, say the Town Council rushed to a vote before all the facts and studies were in on the two properties under consideration.

The vote was 5-4, with one council member absent.

Town councils are elected bodies for unincorporated communities and provide advice for local county supervisors and other local agencies.
