West Hollywood Mayor Lindsey Horvath has announced her candidacy for the L.A. County Board of Supervisors’ Third District seat currently held by Sheila Kuehl. Kuehl is retiring after serving two terms, leaving a vacancy in one of the most powerful local offices in the country.
As the governing body of Los Angeles County, the Board of Supervisors serves as the executive and legislative head of the largest and most complex county government in the U.S. The Board is responsible for a budget of nearly $30 billion, overseeing departments and agencies that meet the needs of 10 million residents.
