A lawsuit filed against the Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District over fundraising for lights on the Palos Verdes Peninsula High School football field was dismissed; however, the saga of stadium lights at Peninsula High School may not be over.
The lawsuit filed by the Peninsula Stadium Lights Steering Committee in January 2012 alleged breach of contract and fraud, among other causes of action.
The Lights Committee had raised about $250,000 toward the goal of installing lights on the high school's football field based upon a resolution passed by the Palos Verdes Peninsula Board of Education giving the group the go-ahead. The board later killed the project after determining the issue had divided the community too much.
