Episode #38
Happening in Upland: Lake America, E-Bike Pursuits, and the $237 Million Bond
From the rebranding of the Great Lakes as "Lake America" to a local e-bike chase that redefined the term "leisurely," this episode of *Happening in Upland* dives into the high-energy posturing and low-budget drama of the week. Joleen and Mark break down the Upland Unified School District's massive $237 million bond measure and the appointment of new superintendent Shinay Bowman, while questioning if our $210 million infrastructure backlog can handle another influx of "luxury" apartment developments. We also stop by the historic Molly's Souper, celebrate the Woman's Club's 100th anniversary, and look at a Labor Day forecast that promises just enough rain to ruin a barbecue but not enough to water the grass. It's a balanced look at big-ticket local politics, stolen Pokémon cards, and the everyday frustrations of life in the Inland Empire.
