Frequently Asked Questions

 

Question: Is the public notified about LAFCO actions?

Answer: State law requires that LAFCO notify affected agencies and the public regarding most jurisdictional boundary change proposals. Notification of a pending proposal is made to County departments, interested individuals, and local governmental agencies. In addition, comments are solicited from community groups as well as agencies that may potentially be affected by a LAFCO project. LAFCO must also receive information from the County Assessor, Auditor, and various state agencies before a proposal may be scheduled for a public hearing.
