Newspaper: Sexual harassment allegations unanswered from Moorpark College

Moorpark College and the Ventura County Community College District have been criticized for their lack of transparency in handling sexual harassment allegations on campus. 

After the [Camarillo] Acorn reached out to the college and district, both referred the paper to other representatives who provided stock responses and refused to answer policy-related questions. Public records requests also went unanswered, and officials declined to speak with reporters. 

The district has since hired an outside company to address student concerns, but the lack of transparency has raised concerns about accountability and public relations. Source: Camarillo Acorn

Camarillo bridge gets $4 million funding from feds

The city of Camarillo has received $4 million in federal funding for an $18 million bridge improvement project at Las Posas Road and Ventura Boulevard. 

The 465-foot bridge needs replacement as it deteriorates from about 32,000 vehicles passing over it daily. The federal funding will be added to the $12 million of city funds already allocated to the project. The new reinforced concrete bridge will bring the infrastructure up to current standards for pedestrian and bicycle use and prevent weight limitations and road closures. 

The city plans to begin construction in the summer of 2025, pending additional state and federal grants. Source: Camarillo Acorn
