Paramount Seeks Stopgap Funds for Bond Election
Paramount Unified School District trustees move to hold a smaller stopgap election on June 2 after voter rejection of an $8 million bond and a $1.78 tax override.

The district serves parts of Paramount Lakewood South Gate Hollydale Long Beach and Bellflower. A Blue Ribbon Committee must finalize recommendations by April 20 or the election will be canceled.
