By School district moves corporation yard

The Los Altos City Council granted the Los Altos School District permission to use the parking lot adjacent to the tennis courts at Covington mini-park as a temporary corporation yard until this fall when the district’s new corporation yard on Fremont Avenue is scheduled to open.

The school district must move from its current corporation yard at the Covington school campus by June 1 in order to move forward with the school’s renovation project.

The district had swapped a portion of the Covington land with the city in exchange for an equal piece of land on Fremont Avenue for a new corporation yard. The parking lot area targeted for the interim corporation yard was included in part of last December’s land swap and required city approval before the district could temporarily close the lot. The city will require residents who use the tennis courts and other facilities on the Covington site to park at Rosita Park until October.
