Dorn Outlines Proposal for Board of Freeholders
Los Angeles supervisor Warren M. Dorn plans a bid for a 15 member Board of Freeholders to revise the county charter. He asks colleagues to reconsider last week’s rejection of key study committee recommendations and says a newer form of government could save tax money. If failing, he will seek election of the Freeholders in November by three supervisor votes. The plan faces opposition from Supervisor Kenneth Hahn who disputes creating a strong county manager with broad powers.
