Recycling center closure in Seal Beach sparks funding debate
Seal Beach shuts its recycling center after six months of $100 monthly losses as newsprint prices plunged from about $30 per ton to $5. City officials say tax funds should not cover deficits and Long Beach State University’s campus center remains open, funded partly by volunteers and student government. The Belmont Shore Bay Shore traffic plan also faces questions about a permanent pedestrian pathway, with no current plans for closure or mall status.

Ex-assessor aides plead guilty to conspiracy charges
Five management employees of Orange County assessor’s office pleaded guilty to a single felony conspiracy count after plea bargaining. Thirty-two related charges were dropped. The group faced 33 counts accusing false claims for overtime, mileage and vacation time in 1972 tied to an election effort for former Assessor Andrew Hinshaw. Sentencing dates were set in July for each defendant, with co-defendant James Bertolino awaiting trial. Separate indictments and trial dates were noted for other officials. Burglars also stole a TV and stereo worth $730 from Catherine Slayton’s apartment.
