LOST FEDERAL FUNDS - YEAR AFTER YEAR

Did you know the San Fernando Valley did not get a dime of the $17 BILLION 2002 Federal HUD Grant because our borders do not touch the areas of LA that got all the money? This happens time and time again.

Do you want new Valley City services? Or continue to pay $127 million a year for no services at all?  The choice is yours!
