City Manager Says State Being Irresponsible

La Mirada~The La Mirada Redevelopment Agency will lose $4,839,372 next week and another $995,391 next year as a result of a court decision upholding State budget actions.  These funds will not be returned to La Mirada.  

The combined total of $5,834,763 is equal to about 18 percent of the City's General Fund Budget, and is more than the salaries of the City's entire full-time staff for a one year period.

The State Budget approved by the Legislature and signed by the Governor in July 2009 called for a $2.05 billion raid on local redevelopment funds to pay the State's bills.
