Bill to Set Up Tax Areas Moves to State Assembly
Legislation to let counties form county service areas with special taxes for added police fire protection and other services goes to the Assembly for concurrence. The bill is voluntary and hinges on where basic county services end and extra services begin. Lakewood annexation opponents argue it won’t change the push to join Long Beach, while supporters say it could raise the area’s appeal.
