From The Los Angeles Times: The Los Angeles Community College District Board of Trustees says it has reached a settlement with a firm over alleged billing improprieties. The company will continue to supervise the $450-million building program at Los Angeles Mission College. The district had alleged that Gateway Science & Engineering approved payments to the construction company FTR International for work it had not performed at a 90,000-square-foot fitness center on the campus. The project was plagued by delays and allegations of faulty workmanship.
