A few news stories this Sunday mentions or deals with Hercules…

- “In Hercules in 2004, some council candidates were accused of not obeying the city’s [political campaign] sign law, which establishes a handful of locations on public property where each candidate can put up one sign.”

- “Other districts, such as West Contra Costa School District, have data from the list [the state's list of public school buildings prone to collapse during a major earthquake] and have assessed their buildings’ deficiencies, but can’t afford to fix all of them, highlighting one of the conundrums of the state inventory.”

- And “John Swett school district leaders hope that voters in November will consider helping them make some much-needed upgrades to the school by approving ballot Measure A, a $20 million bond that would pay for a new media center, music room, new athletic complex with an all-weather track and artificial-turf fields, and much more.”
