After raising our local sales taxes, the Palmdale City Council took in more money than originally expected. Rather than spend the funds on local government activities, the council decided by a 3/2 vote to give over a million dollars to a select group of private organizations in the form of grants.
Mayor Steve Hofbauer, who opposed the giveaway, noted that the council still doesn't know how the organizations getting our money will spend it.
