Los Angeles Street Lights Are Going Out. Who Should Pay to Bring Them Back? | Jon Fleischman

Los Angeles property owners have until June 2 to vote on an assessment that would nearly quadruple what they currently pay for street lights, a decision cities across California are increasingly facing. As the ballot goes out, the city council is simultaneously advancing a proposal that would change how street level enforcement works across LA neighborhoods. How well do we understand the full picture before we vote?

In this episode, California policy observer and SoDoesItMatter.com founder Jon Fleischman walks through the mechanics behind LA’s street light assessment, the enforcement proposal moving through city council, and what both decisions together reveal about how local government sets its priorities.
