Neighbors appeal approval of 900-student Milken high school on Casiano Road
Two appeals send the City Planning Commission's 9-0 approval of the Bel Air campus reuse to the City Council.
The former American Jewish University campus on North Casiano Road could operate as Milken Community School, a private high school for grades 9 through 12 with up to 40 classrooms and 900 students, growing from 544 students in 2026-2027. Neighbors appealed the Planning Commission's April 23, 2026 approval, sending it to the City Council.
What happens next
City Council must act on the appeals within 75 days of the June 4, 2026 appeal filing.
