The city of West Hollywood is taking a new and controversial approach to policing: cutting funding for the LA County Sheriff’s Department, and using that money to strengthen other public safety programs.
The city of West Hollywood is taking a new and controversial approach to policing in the community: cutting funding for the LA County Sheriff's Department, and using that money to strengthen other public safety programs.
The decision isn't sitting well with everyone in the city, with some members of City Council worried about how the change will impact public safety. During the council's vote to restructure the city's budget on Monday, the measure was only narrowly approved. It passed without the support of West Hollywood Mayor Lauren Meister, who has been a vocal opponent of reducing the Sheriff's presence in the city.
The restructuring will leave WeHo with four fewer patrolling Sheriff's Deputies. Two of those deputies will be removed in six months, while the other two will be removed six months after that.
