Municipal Miseries

The Orange County division of the League of California Cities calculated Friday that local cities will lose more than $42 million in the state budget passed this week. The budget imposes a permanent 9% reduction in property tax revenue and a one-time partial loss of redevelopment funds. Here is the city-by-city breakdown:
