The Board of Supervisors approved a 20-year agreement today for the operation of the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden.

Under the agreement with the Los Angeles County Arboretum Foundation, the county will pay an annual management fee of $250,000 out of revenues generated by admission and tram fees.
The county will receive all revenues above $250,000 and up to $700,000, after which revenues will be split 50/50. The gardens are open daily from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. More information is available at www.arboretum.org and (626) 821-3222.
