Fairmont School Expansion
Fairmont School is located near the intersection of Newport Ave and La Colina. The FCA worked extensively with Supervisor Bill Campbell and the Planing Commission to define a compromise position on the expansion of the school enrollment beyond the existing use permit. Fairmont School had been in violation of the conditional use permit for some time. A compromise was reached that allowed a small increase in permitted enrollment over that allowed by the conditional use permit, changes in parking arrangements, and adding a median to Newport Avenue in front of the school.

FCA Description by FCA President Bruce Junor

The recent surge of institution-like structures is of great concern and dramatically impacts the quality of life in North Tustin. This area is zoned for non-commercial use, and we seek to preserve that plan.
