Long Beach budget proposes nearly 3 million cut
A preliminary 1971 72 budget for Long Beach calls for curtailing some services and trimming total expenditures to about 145.26 million. The general city government budget rises to 62.97 million, aided by property taxes, with a modest tax rate increase. The plan preserves vital services but eliminates or consolidates many programs, including reduced library hours, fewer recreation offerings, and 161 job cuts, amid rising costs and revenue shortfalls.
