Change.org counter-petition launched by Samantha Savage on March 1, 2026 — three days after the Feb 26 board vote, and eleven days before the Mar 12 pre-meeting at which Trustee Kelly attempted to add a reconsideration motion. Current signature count: 1,395 (verified), now larger than the original Bates petition's 1,134. Same no-residency-verification mechanism. The Savage petition surfaces three previously-uncaptured factual claims: (1) the Allemann survey had ~50% LBHS student participation, with Guyer Field receiving 47.1% and Irvine Bowl receiving 46.2% — i.e., a ~0.9-point Guyer lead, not the 'split right down the middle' framing Glass used at the meeting; (2) Guyer Field 'recently underwent a $1.165 million dollar renovation' — relevant cost-allocation context for the venue move; (3) the audit claim against the Bates petition that '35% of the votes came from zip codes outside even the three adjacent zip codes' of the LBUSD catchment. Targets the LBUSD Board of Education and asks for reversal of the Feb 26 decision prior to the Mar 12 meeting — the documented community-reconsideration vehicle that the Mar 12 Brown Act ruling foreclosed.

Counter-petition (Samantha Savage) cites the survey breakdown as ~50% LBHS student participation with Guyer Field at 47.1% and Irvine Bowl at 46.2% — a ~0.9-point Guyer lead, more specific than Glass's 'split right down the middle' framing at the Feb 26 vote.
