League of California Cities membership withdrawal
Summary
Newport Beach is quitting the League of California Cities, the statewide lobbying group that represents cities in Sacramento. That means the city will save on membership dues but lose a seat at the table when state laws and budgets affecting Newport Beach are debated. If you care about local control or state funding, this is a trade-off worth watching.
