Sacramento Report: The State-of-Play on San Diego\u2019s Midway Rising Bill<\/a><\/p>\n

by Nadia Lathan | Voice of San Diego<\/p>\n

San Diego officials are moving full-steam ahead to get one of their chief policy priorities to the finish line before the legislative session wraps up next month.<\/p>\n

Senate Bill 958<\/a>\u00a0would make it easier to build a 165-foot-tall\u00a0sports arena<\/a>\u00a0in the Midway District neighborhood by giving broad exemptions to building height restrictions in the California Environmental Quality Act, the state\u2019s preeminent environmental law.<\/p>\n

It allows the lawsuit-ridden Midway Rising project, which includes housing and the arena, to skirt the neighborhood\u2019s 30-foot height limit for buildings near the coast.<\/p>\n

California school boards grant themselves hefty pay raises following new law<\/a><\/p>\n

by\u00a0Diana Lambert | EdSource<\/a><\/p>\n

School board members at dozens of California districts have voted to increase their own pay by thousands of dollars per year after a 2025 law raised trustee compensation limits for the first time in 41 years.<\/p>\n

In the first six months of the year, Elk Grove Unified School District trustees raised their monthly stipends by 500% to $4,500. Trustees in the Beverly Hills, Oceanside, Orange, Carlsbad, Escondido and Antioch school districts increased their pay by 400%.<\/p>\n

Effective this year, Assembly Bill 1390<\/a>, raised the cap on board stipends to between $600 and\u00a0$4,500 a month<\/a>, depending on student enrollment. Previously, school district trustees could earn between $60 and $1,500 monthly stipends for their service, in what are typically considered part-time jobs. The law also allows school boards to increase their stipend 5% annually, even if it reaches beyond the maximum rate.<\/p>\n
