Real Newport Beach

Corona del Mar high school is a source of pride for our community.  The Newport Mesa school board and the high school want to build an improved, multi-purpose athletic field and track.  That's great...right?  Well, it's a bit harder for residents near the school to gleefully embrace the new field/stadium. If you lived nearby you'd be thinking about traffic, noise, impact on home values, and parking, just to name a few.  Then there's the 80' light polls, a PA system and an uncertain number of night events that can go as late as 10:00 pm.  How much influence can local homeowners have on the process? You'll be surprised!  Ryan O'Grady and I talk about what we know, what we think we know and how we feel about the process.
