Review of Religious Group Policy Sought
From Times Staff Reports
Ventura County Supervisor Steve Bennett is asking for a review of policy governing religious groups’ use of county buildings.
An update is needed because the U.S. Supreme Court in June issued a ruling that could make it tougher for religious groups to use county facilities, Bennett said.
“We ought to make sure our policies are consistent with that ruling,” he said. The Ventura-based supervisor will ask his colleagues Tuesday to approve a review.
