This week on PBS SoCaL, we delve into the latest in Costa Mesa, where a battle between the council majority and labor groups is heating up again over a move to outsource the city’s jail staff to a private company.

We discuss this and more on PBS SoCaL:

  • The latest in Anaheim’s ongoing controversy over layoffs at the Honda Center and their implications for job creation tax credits statewide.
  • Santa Ana youths challenging city leaders over its $200-million budget and a surprising reaction from Councilman Vincent Sarmiento.

Voice of OC’s weekly news segments are broadcast on PBS SoCaL Wednesdays and Fridays at 5 p.m.
