Proposition on November Ballot Expands County Board
Three Los Angeles County Supervisors oppose adding two seats to the Board saying the move would raise costs and create red tape. Bonelli predicts millions in extra county spending, while Chace worries about district drawing and diluted local influence. The measure gains League backing but faces suburban opposition. Dor and Debs offer limited enthusiasm.
