Has anyone researched the cost of maintaining a property of this magnitude. It seems as though the state could have downsized a bit and put the rest in escrow for maintenance.

I went to Belmont High in '45 - '46.
Beautiful school with a campanele. The teachers were good as well and seemed to care about the kids. No one knew then about methane gas etc. Too bad. LA is such a miserable place any more.

The New Black Hole of School Construction: its called South Region High School #15 - set to the the greenest school in America come 2012... constuction is just about to start.. this high school is now costing the LA Taxpayers $113 million for the benefit of just 500 magnet students as noted by Richard Vladovic... how can they spend this much money for such a small school, to prove it check these 2 links out from LAUSD own site:
http://www.laschools.org/project-status/one-project?project_number=56.40092

And to prove they are overspending check this out: see that it only took $93 million for the benefit of 2,700 students:

Kelley Lynch: Full Disclosure was told that LAUSD hires the biggest and best lawfirms to lobby on their behalf when they come up against the laws of the State and Federal government. In this case, even though the IRS threatened LAUSD with sanctions and penalties for the illegal expenditure of public funds on the retail portion of the development, there was no action taken. Please look at our Video Blog #5 at this URL: http://www.fulldisclosure.net/flash/VideoBlogs/VideoBlog5.php where this matter is discussed

And for even more detail, here is another very short Video providing further scoop on what was going on behind the scenes. http://www.fulldisclosure.net/flash/VideoBlogs/VideoBlog6.htm http://www.fulldisclosure.net/flash/VideoBlogs/VideoBlog5.php
