L B retains tideland budgeting authority row
Sacramento, the State Lands Commission trimmed Long Beach tideland budget control then restored most of it. It cut 816000 from a 40.9 million 1971-72 plan, kept veto power over inter category transfers, and approved a 250000 contingency fund for Thums. City officials argued the city’s oversight has yielded rich returns and questioned procedural changes.
