County Supervisors Go Dark for Two Weeks Beginning Tuesday

Anyone planning to address the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday should stay home. There is no meeting.

The Board has cancelled both its August 18 and August 25 sessions, leaving a two-week gap in the county’s legislative calendar before supervisors reconvene in September.

The Board normally meets Tuesdays at 9:30 a.m. in Hearing Room 381B at the Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration. The last regular meeting of each month is reserved largely for legally required public hearings on zoning matters, fee increases, special district proceedings and property transactions. Both cancelled sessions fall inside that pattern; August 25 would have been the month’s hearing date.

The gap carries particular weight for Altadena, which is unincorporated and has no city council of its own. The five-member Board is its governing body, and county departments are the agencies rebuilding it after the January 2025 Eaton Fire.

Residents with business before the county are not without recourse. Written correspondence to the Board can be submitted at any time, and the Executive Office maintains a subscription service that emails the agenda for the next scheduled meeting. Altadena’s own advisory body, the Town Council, meets the same Tuesday evening the supervisors will not.

Agendas are subject to change, the county cautions.
