Los Angeles County OKs banning smog creating industries
County Counsel Harold W. Kennedy ruled the Los Angeles Basin can legally ban new polluting industries and curb expansion of those already contributing to air pollution. He said the Board of Supervisors has broad police powers through zoning to control industry in unincorporated areas and can enact measures via the Air Pollution Control Board, provided action is reasonable and not arbitrary. The issue was raised in 1953 by Arnold Beckman who urged urgent zoning of industry and possible relocation or curtailment of plants to reduce smog.
