3. Residents seek to have councilwoman give up one seat (wavepublication.com) — Inglewood residents are challenging Councilwoman Gloria Gray’s decision to hold both a City Council seat and a West Basin Municipal Water District seat, arguing the dual roles conflict under state law and hurt local representation.
