How much of the road-tax money will be given to South Bay cities? The 10-year projections show: El Segundo: $3.8 million Lawndale: $7.7 million Manhattan Beach: $8.1 million Inglewood: $26.7 million Torrance: $33.7 million The beach cities Hermosa and Redondo could see $4.5 million and $15.9 million, respectively, from the higher fuel and car taxes. These totals don’t include money from Measure M, the sales tax initiative approved by Los Angeles County voters that will pay for local transportation projects through 2057. That covers what South Bay drivers can expect to get from Sacramento’s plan to rehabilitate the state’s highway system, modernize freeways, shore up bridges and overpasses, and monitor how the road tax revenue is spent. But what will it cost drivers at the pump and for their DMV registration tags? About $10 per month per drive, according to Brown who assures Californians the tradeoff is worth it. “This is a smart plan that will improve the quality of life in California,” the governor said. A California driver spends approximately $700 per year in extra car repairs because of rough and pockmarked roads. Last winter’s rains left thousands of YOUR AD HERE potholes on South Bay streets, many of which are patched for the time being. Potholes aren’t only bad for cars and trucks; they’re dangerous and sometimes deadly. South Bay representatives supported the road repair plan. Senators Ben Allen, D-Redondo Beach, and Steven Bradford, D-Inglewood, voted for its passage. Assemblywoman Burke, D-Inglewood, also backed the plan, even though it creates an electric vehicle road use fee. Burke has proposed a bill in the Assembly to require carmakers to increase their sale of zero-emissions vehicles in California. The road-surfacing industry cheered the passage of the bill, and a spokesman said the trade association will be working closely with Caltrans, Los Angeles County and cities to stretch taxpayer dollars. Russell Snyder, executive director of the California Asphalt Pavement Association, said his group will act as a watchdog to ensure “those dollars are put to good use as quickly as possible.” His association has been working with Caltrans and local government agencies to refine street paving and build longer-lasting road surfaces. “We’re all in this together--and our ultimate bosses, the taxpayers and transportation system users of California, demand nothing less than our best efforts,” Snyder said. The cost to repair a street depends on how badly it’s damaged, making it impossible for him to venture a guess on how many miles of South Bay city streets could be like new in a short time. • YOUR AD HERE Email to reserve your space marketing@heraldpublications.com Email to reserve your space marketing@heraldpublications.com OVER 40 THOUSAND PAPERS DELIVERED WITHIN MILES OF YOUR HOME OR BUSINESS.

The Cougars went on to lose the second game of the series as well. Culver City put together 17 hits and scored 16 runs as it watched Hawthorne commit eight errors on the day in the Cougars’ 16-5 loss. Things won’t get much easier for the Cougars (5-11, 0-6) this week. The team will travel to El Segundo for the first of two games against the first place Eagles before closing out the regular season with a series against the recently hot Lawndale Cardinals. With a senior-laden team this year, Hawthorne and Randolph will have to find pitching in the offseason if they wish to have a shot at getting a struggling baseball program turned around in the right direction. Lawndale High The Lawndale Cardinals baseball team and head coach Robert Dempsey have been showing signs of life lately. After a four-game losing streak during the middle of the season, the Cardinals rattled off three wins in a row against some solid opponents like the Culver City Centaurs and the North High Saxons of the Pioneer League. Despite their recent success, though, a two-game series against the first place El Segundo Eagles did its part in bringing Lawndale back down to earth for at least the moment. Just when the Cardinals were beginning to get a little late-season momentum going, they ran into the buzz saw that is the El Segundo squad last Tuesday afternoon on the road. Behind starting pitcher Julian Diaz, Lawndale got off to a good start and kept the Eagles off of the scoreboard through the first two innings of play. It was in the third, however, that El Segundo broke out the bats and began to take the lead. The four through seven batters in the Eagles’ lineup each had at least one RBI in the game against Diaz. Senior Nico Celestial went three for three with two RBIs and Kobe Estrada had a solo home run as El Segundo led 5-0 at the end of the fifth. The Cardinals (5-11, 1-5) never gave up, to their credit. Seniors Roberto Novela and Leo Cervantes each came away with RBI singles in the sixth and seventh innings to score Diaz and Jayce Dempsey, respectively. The late-inning push by Lawndale wasn’t enough to get back in the game, though, as senior Justin Ostler was able to buckle down and close the game out for El Segundo. Lawndale also took an 8-3 loss in the second of the two-game series with its Ocean League rival, but will look for more success as it travels to take on the Beverly Hills Normans in a league matchup this week. Inglewood High Inglewood’s struggles within the Bay League continued last week when Kewatta Wade’s team took a loss to league rival, the Mira Costa Mustangs. The 10-0 loss marked yet another shutout for the Sentinels, meaning that the team has only scored one run in the month of April. Inglewood will take on Peninsula this week before ending the season with a matchup that should be a bit easier versus Morningside. Morningside has forfeited nine games so far this year. • – Asixlion@earthlink.net
