Efficiency at work
How's this for government efficiency?
The Los Angeles County Economy and Efficiency Commission, a group of unpaid volunteers who look at the county's operations and has been credited with pushing through a number of savings, almost went out of business because of what was described as an administrative oversight.
An ordinance creating the adivsory panels had been adopted that excluded the panel.
The Board of Supervisors, after being chided for the irony of failing to include the organization adopted a special measure on Tuesday to keep them in business through 2011.
