The Pasadena Unified School District has filed a lawsuit against Southern California Edison, alleging that the utility company’s equipment caused the devastating Eaton Fire, which damaged multiple school campuses. The district joins Los Angeles County, Pasadena, and Sierra Madre in legal action against the utility company over the January 7 blaze.
The Pasadena Unified School District board voted 6-1 on Thursday to approve the layoffs of 151 full-time staff members, despite protests from teachers and union leaders.
