Maywood to lay off all city employees, dismantle Police Department L.A. NOW Los Angeles Times
"The city of Maywood will lay off all city employees and begin contracting police services with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department effective July 1, officials said.
In addition to contracting with the Sheriff's Department, the Maywood City Council voted unanimously Monday night to lay off an estimated 100 employees and contract with neighboring Bell, which will handle other city services such as finance, records management, parks and recreation, street maintenance and others.
Maywood will be billed about $50,833 monthly, which officials said will save $164,375 annually.

'We will become 100% a contracted city,' said Angela Spaccia, Maywood's interim city manager."
