In Santee, both a sales-tax measure and a school facilities bond were trailing in Wednesday's unofficial election returns. Measure Y, projected to generate roughly $14 million annually for city services, trailed in early counts. Measure BB, the school bond, also trailed — and faces a steeper climb than a simple-majority measure, since California school bonds require 55% approval. With Measure BB sitting noticeably below that threshold in early returns, an updated results tally expected Thursday will be closely watched.
Meanwhile, the suspicious-death investigation on Graves Avenue remains an active watch item. Deputies and firefighters responded to the 8500 block of Graves Avenue on October 30 for an injured person who later died at a hospital. Sheriff's homicide detectives are investigating because the injuries were described as suspicious. No confirmed homicide classification, identity, or cause of death has been established. The Sheriff's Homicide Unit is accepting tips at 858-285-6330, and anonymous information can be submitted to Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477.
On a lighter note, The Heritage Steakhouse is reportedly targeting a November opening at Lantern Crest, 200 Lantern Crest Way, with a sixth-floor dining room. FOX 5's most recent preview confirmed an opening this month, though a specific date has not been pinned down. Earlier coverage had placed the opening in late summer; November is the updated expectation.
