MWD sets 13 cent tax rate for Los Angeles amid lawsuit threat
The Metropolitan Water District approved a 13 cent Los Angeles city tax rate for the current year. City Attorney Burt Pines warned of a possible suit, accusing the district of funding needs via bonds and taxes instead of water rates. Hawkins, district chairman, defended the policy, stating LA bears about 12.4 million of roughly 51.3 million tax revenue while LA residents receive 2 percent of water services.
