The Pasadena Unified School District board voted to authorize “reduction in force’ notices at its Feb. 26 meeting, as it looks at cutting more than 80 certificated positions, with more to come.
The board is facing an estimated deficit of between $7 million and $12 million for the 2013-2014 school year. By law, employees with a credential — including teachers, nurses, counselors, and administrators — must be notified by March 15 that their positions are being considered for elimination.

The Altadena Town Council has only one action item on the agenda for Tuesday: considering a temporary moratorium for commercial development in the Lake Avenue business district.
Accordingly, expect the meeting to be crowded: the Land Use Committee also heard public comment about the idea last week, and sent it to the Town Council without making a decision itself.
