Staff Report

Unexpected money problems are forcing the trustees of the Sausalito Marin City School District to reconsider the size, location and layout of a new Martin Luther King Jr. Academy middle school in Marin City.
At a meeting Thursday night, district trustees revisited the issue after learning last month that the proposed location was on unstable bay mud.

Stablilizing the school could cost millions of dollars more than planned.

Trustees are considering a plan to relocate the school on areas of the property where the soil is more stable.

Engineering consultants were asked to return with new options by the middle of the month.
