Dominguez Incorporation Hearing Set For Wednesday
About ten thousand residents will travel to Los Angeles civic center to hear the Local Agency Formation Commission reconsider a proposal by the Dominguez Carson Citizens Committee for Incorporation. The plan would create a city south of Alondra Boulevard and include Dominguez and Compton with Long Beach boundaries. Eastern Longwood Estates are excluded, proposed to join Long Beach via annexation. The commission previously cut land, leaving about one third outside the March 17 decision. Long Beach officials urge delay and continued inquiry into service options and possible annexation or retention as unincorporated. A court challenge resulted in replacing commissioner Bert Bond with J A Beasley for the Wednesday hearing.
