LA County to Celebrate Revitalized Florence-Firestone Small Businesses Through County Façade Improvement Program

Los Angeles, CA — The Los Angeles County Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO), Supervisor Holly J. Mitchell, the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA), and community partners will host a ribbon-cutting celebration for two Florence-Firestone small businesses that recently completed storefront improvements through DEO’s RENOVATE Façade Improvement Program.
