Don’t Move IRS Out
of El Segundo
Congress recently passed the largest
overhaul to the tax code in 30 years, which
means the workload at the Internal Revenue
Service is about to increase exponentially.
Taxpayers, employers and accountants are
going to have questions about how it all
affects them.
But the agency has already lost $900 million
because of budget cuts that started in
2010, and our workforce has 21,000 fewer
full-time permanent employees.
So this is a particularly bad time for the
IRS to consider closing its office in El Segundo.
If the agency moves the El Segundo
employees to Long Beach this summer, it ends
the IRS’ presence in western Los Angeles
County altogether.
Closing El Segundo would make it harder
for IRS employees to serve the individual
taxpayers and business owners between the
San Fernando Valley and the Los Angeles
Harbor. For 20 years, the IRS employees on
Sepulveda Boulevard have been a resource
for anyone who wanted to conduct IRS business
in person.
We support efforts by the IRS to make
the agency run more efficiently, but this
office relocation does not meet that
criteria. Many of the people who work in
El Segundo are local, and adding 20 miles
in L.A. traffic to their commute would be
a hardship.
U.S. Rep. Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, has
rightfully questioned this office relocation
and we ask the residents of El Segundo and
the surrounding neighborhoods to join us in
urging the IRS to reconsider.

A Special Thank You from
Loretta Frye’s Family
A heartfelt thank you to the fine men and
women, who serve on El Segundo Fire and
Police Departments.
As many of you are aware, my mother,
Loretta Frye, passes away on March 1,
2018. Repeatedly throughout the last two
years, deteriorating chronic health conditions
triggered multiple emergency calls to
paramedics and police. The emergency services
provided by our city were exceptional.
Despite her health challenges and setbacks,
my mother was extremely proud to have
been part of advocating and maintaining
our independent fire and police departments
my mother was confident, pleased, and
grateful for the emergency services provided
to her. I routinely observed timely, professional,
and courteous paramedics. This family
will forever maintain that our independent
police and fire services are shining jewels
in El Segundo’s crown.
Lastly, I want to thank and express my
personal gratitude to several El Segundo
police officers, who offered support and
comfort to me on that difficult day. The
officers present assisted with many above
and beyond tasks. I needed your help,
and you were there. Officer O’Conner,
all I can say is that “you are a credit to
your profession”.
I am proud to be a citizen in a city where
our police and fire personnel exemplify the
true ideals of the community service provided
- to protect and serve.
On behalf of my mom, Loretta, and the
entire Frye family, thank you for being
there in our time of need. Once again, it
is crystal clear why El Segundo is our
chosen home.
