💼 COUNTY BOARD EXPANSION: The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is advancing a proposal to expand the board from five to nine members and introduce a countywide elected executive position.

Other proposed reforms include electing a county chief executive by 2028, establishing an independent ethics commission, and implementing a revolving door policy for former officials. The nine-member plan would take effect in 2032 after redistricting. The Board must finalize the package by August 9th to place it on the November ballot. 🐇
