Angeles in recognition of its regional park responsibilities in addition
to its local park responsibilities for the unincorporated areas. Based
on the State' s current projected 1980 population, the funds available for
the agencies of Los Angeles County will be $24 , 501, 697 . This figure is
subject to minor change when the State Department of Finance recomputes
the projected 1980 population in January, 1977 . The State' s January,
1977, projected 1980 population of Counties will be the basis on which
the funds will be allocated to Counties. Therefore, the County of Los
Angeles can expect to allocate about $6, 125, 424, (25% of $24 ,501,697) .
II. Cities in Los Angeles County with a population of less
than 3, 275 will receive $10, 000 based on the plan that no City will re-
ceive less than $10, 000 .
III. The remaining funds will be allocated to cities on a
per capita basis. The population figures to be used in computing the
amount to be allocated to each City will be the State of California
Department of Finance estimated population as of January, 1977. It is
estimated that each City would be allocated about $3 . 05 per capita.
