Hermosa schools parcel tax draws favor and fire

Buoyed by a public hearing this week that reflected a swell of support, the Hermosa Beach City School District appears headed for a parcel-tax election.

Some 50 people turned out Wednesday night to offer their views on a measure that trustees are eyeing for the June 3 ballot.
