Not so fast on that new Wilmington K-8

After complaints from the community about the businesses that would be displaced by the school, the Los Angeles Board of Education voted Tuesday to delay construction and reconsider the school site.

From Paul Clinton's story:

To change the school's location, trustee Richard Vladovic must return to the board with an alternate site by Dec. 11. If he doesn't, the current favored site will regain the top position, Executive Officer Jefferson Crain said in an e-mail.

The district's chosen site - bounded by Avalon Boulevard, L Street, Broad Avenue and M Street - has met opposition from the community surrounding it, as well as Councilwoman Janice Hahn.

Here's the story.
