More Planners Down

First, Petaluma wiped out its planning department and now the Daily Breeze reports on planning cuts closer to home. Nothing to plan, apparently. "Redondo Beach will cut six positions in the planning and building departments, resulting in three layoffs at City Hall. The City Council's unanimous vote Tuesday night came despite pleas from employees and residents, who urged members to hold off until a budget proposal is released later this month." [DB]
