Two Pasadena students are caught in a city feud over promised scholarship money from taxpayer dollars and being axed at the last minute by a city attorney.
ByTwo Pasadena students are at the center of a city feud after officials take away scholarship money awarded with taxpayer dollars.What started as an exciting opportunity for two Pasadena students turned into a city feud.
Pineda is one of two students from Pasadena High School who were picked from a scholarship competition by Pasadena Councilmember Emmanuel Guerrero's office. "It kind of puts me in a struggle because even though it's small, it would help me a lot," Pineda said."Since then, up to this point, I have had no explanation of why that occurred, and we followed all the proper channels and process to the point where it even went on the agenda," Guerrero said.
Guerrero says the money was coming from the $3,600 allotted city budget for his district, which he says he can use at his discretion.
