HISTORY OF LA COUNTY GOVERNANCE

This collection of reports serves as a vital historical resource for understanding the evolution of governance in Los Angeles County. Spanning from the early 1970s through the 1990s, these documents were produced by various commissions, task forces, and oversight bodies committed to improving the structure, transparency, and accountability of County government. Many of the reports directly informed or anticipated the reforms embodied in Measure G, including proposals for an elected County Executive, expansion of the Board of Supervisors, and the establishment of independent oversight mechanisms.

The reports cover a wide range of themes, such as charter reform, fiscal accountability, public participation, and service delivery to unincorporated areas. Collectively, they reflect decades of civic engagement and institutional analysis aimed at modernizing County operations and enhancing democratic governance. By making these documents publicly accessible, this archive supports Measure G’s commitment to transparency and provides valuable context for ongoing discussions about effective and equitable County leadership.
