The San Mateo County Community College District trustees voted 4-0 last week to sell the vacant 22 acres on the Skyline College campus in San Bruno to Palo Alto-based Summerhill Homes, Inc.

The transaction is part of a three-way deal between the residential developer, the community college district and the neighboring Laguna Salada Unified School District.

The community college district will use the proceeds from the Summerhill Home sale to buy and renovate the 20-room, $19.9 million Pacific Heights Middle School. The remaining money will be used to upgrade the campus, which is scheduled to close in June 2002.

The Laguna Salada Unified School District, which is also closing Ortega Middle School in Pacific due to declining enrollments, will invest the money it gets from the community college in construction of a consolidated 650-student middle school in Pacifica's Sharp Park.
