Weekly forum updates
The candidate forum for the Pleasanton Unified School District Trustee Area 2 contested election, which the Weekly planned to moderate on Sept. 20, has been canceled because one of the two active candidates is not available for the scheduled date. We are working with our partners in the hopes of securing a new date in time before the election.
If not, look for interview-based coverage of the two remaining candidates, Urvi Shah and Laurie Walker, as well as unchallenged Area 5 candidate Justin Brown, later this election season in the Weekly.
Also, last week’s Editorial highlighting the forum schedule listed an incorrect location for the Sept. 15 Livermore mayor and council forum. It will be held from 6-8:30 p.m. at the Robert Livermore Community Center, 4444 East Ave. in Livermore.
The forum season kicks off on Monday (Sept. 12) with candidates for Pleasanton City Council districts 1 and 3 debating from 6-8 p.m. in the City Council Chambers, 200 Old Bernal Ave. in Pleasanton.
PUSD town hall
PUSD officials including the school board, Superintendent David Haglund and his executive team will be participating in the first of four community town halls scheduled for this school year next Tuesday (Sept. 13) from 5:30-7 p.m. at Village High School, 4645 Bernal Ave.
“The leadership team will share information about district goals for the school year, facilities needs and an update on the current district office property and Village High School,” PUSD officials said.
The other town halls are scheduled for Nov. 15 at Amador Valley High School, Jan. 31 at Hart Middle School and April 25 at Foothill High School, with those agendas pending.
