$4.4 Million Approved for Pasadena Projects
- Share via
More than $4.4 million in capital improvement projects for Northwest Pasadena were approved Tuesday by the city Board of Directors.
The projects, which will begin this year, include placing electric lines underground, making $1.4-million worth of street repairs, spending $631,500 on park improvements and adding $1.9 million for new street lighting.
The work represents an attempt by Pasadena to remedy its failure to implement the $30.5-million Northwest Plan. The five-year program was touted as a new beginning for the city’s largest minority neighborhood, but the city shortchanged the area by about $10 million, a report by the Northwest Task Force said.
