Original Note:
It’s important to include context of how much the budget actually is in comparison to the current budget. From the 2023-2024 to the 2024-2025 budgets, the LAFD’s budget was reduced by over $17 million from $837,191,237 to $819,637,423. The LAFD budget is still over $800M. https://abc7.com/post/los-angeles-cut-175m-fire-department-budget-months-before-palisades-signed-mayor-karen-bass/15782731/ https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/los-angeles-mayor-slashed-fire-budget-prioritized-homeless
