LANCASTER, SANTA CLARITA : County Sets Public Hearings on Budget
Los Angeles County officials, led by Chief Administrative Officer Richard Dixon, are scheduled to hold first-ever community hearings Sunday in Lancaster and Santa Clarita on the county’s proposed $13.4-billion budget and its planned cutbacks in county programs.
The Lancaster hearing will be from 1 to 3 p.m. at Antelope Municipal Court, 1040 W. Ave. J.
The Santa Clarita hearing will be from 4 to 6 p.m. at Newhall Municipal Court, 23747 W. Valencia Blvd.
They are among 12 sessions scheduled this month countywide, including two slated June 13 in the San Fernando Valley.
In the past, county officials held budget hearings weekdays at the Hall of Administration in downtown Los Angeles, but drew criticism that working residents were hard-pressed to attend.
