Supervisor Responds to Home Improvement Questions

Hosted by

For decades, LA County's Board of Supervisors has been almost immune to change.  The five current incumbents have served for a total of almost 100 years. Now, term limits passed by the voters are changing all that. We hear from Bobby Shriver and Sheila Kuehl, front-runners for the seat now occupied by Zev Yaroslavsky, who's termed out. Also, another Supervisor, Mark Ridley-Thomas, makes his first public comment about home improvements made at taxpayer expense.

We look at the possible reasons and the potential consequences of the disconnect between science and public perception.
