Chace Deserves Re-Election To Board Of Supervisors
Burton W. Chace seeks a third term on the Board of Supervisors, having represented Long Beach in county government since his earlier mayoralty. The Fourth District hopeful touts flood control, a county courthouse project, and opposition to a Los Angeles court consolidation as evidence of effective advocacy for Long Beach. He faced the test of opposing a debt financed downtown LA auditorium without a public vote and supported Long Beach against state takeover efforts, earning backing from local voters who reappointed him for a second term and should do so again in June.
