Endorsement: Yes on Measure FD for fire protection and emergency services (via latimesopinion)
Los Angeles Times editorial board endorsements for the U.S. House, California ballot measures and more.
The L.A. County Fire Department is in some sense separate from the rest of county government. It gets a dedicated chunk of property taxes but nothing from the county’s general fund. To keep up with rising costs, it had to go to voters in 1997 for a parcel tax. Measure FD would supplement that.Voting “yes” is the right move, but the measure would be even easier to support if the rest of county government had its act together a bit better.
That mistake could seriously undermine the chance of passing the measure, which requires a two-thirds vote.
