Description
This object includes both a powerpoint and the report on the municipal finances of the 88 cities in Los Angeles County and selected major cities in the State of California. The purpose of the report is to provide detailed fiscal information about these cities for three reasons. First, the current proposal to split the City of Los Angeles into three separate municipal entities, the San Fernando Valley, Hollywood, and the residual parts of the City of Los Angeles, is a major issue in California state and local government, with regional, statewide, and national implications. This report is intended to help put the current proposal in context. Second, local officials, State legislators, and Members of Congress influence the key fiscal factors that we examine. Therefore, the data help clarify the relative priorities of these elected officials regarding civic finances. Third, the comparative data in this report can initiate a sophisticated discussion of municipal policies in the City of Los Angeles and in municipalities throughout Los Angeles County. In addition, Section 5 of this report examines police expenditures within the City of Los Angeles.
