It's Not Easy To Run An Enterprise Zone Under These Conditions (2)

I hope this doesn't become a a whole series of posts. This time it's the City of South Gate that's getting hit with a big court settlement making a difficult fiscal situation more difficult. From the Los Angeles Times:

Four minority South Gate police officers who claimed they were harassed on the job because of their ties to two controversial and eventually ousted Latino city officials won a $10.4-million jury award Thursday.

The award is believed to be one of the largest ever in a police employment discrimination case and represents another setback for the controversy-plagued, working-class community in southeastern Los Angeles County.

The City will be appealing the decision.
