Pasadena Unified Says City’s Stop Notices Threaten Soil Cleanup and On-Time Reopening
Pasadena Unified School District needs to remove 8,000 cubic yards of fire-contaminated soil from 11 campuses by mid-August 2026 to reopen them for the 2026-2027 school year, but the City of Pasadena has issued stop notices at seven campuses over soil and tree removal concerns. The district claims these stop notices are delaying cleanup efforts.
