Summary:The head of the Hollywood secession movement said Tuesday he will launch an effort soon to carve out a new school district for the proposed new city of Hollywood. Officials argued they should receive at least $86 million in alimony from a new Hollywood city, rather than the $21 million determined by the Local Agency Formation Commission. Their claim was based on the report of their consultant, Edward Hamilton, that "stranded costs" or centralized services can't be cut if Hollywood secedes. LAFCO, which has rejected the argument, has hearings scheduled Monday to reconsider its decision to put Valley secession on the ballot and next Wednesday to reconsider Hollywood.
