Ignacio "Iggy" Venegas sworn in as School District Trustee
The fifth seat on the Fall River Joint Unified School District's Board of Trustees was decided by a roll of the dice Thursday afternoon and Ignacio "Iggy" Venegas came out the winner.
Vegegas and Janelle Howes had tied for the seat with 754 votes each and rather than spend an estimated $7,000 to hold a run off election the board exercised an earlier resolution which called for any ties to be broken by 'lot'. For full details see next week's edition of Mountain Echo.
