Hermosa's budget night, June 15 tax deadlines, and a faster market

The one thing. Hermosa decides what to cut tonight. Council meets at 6 PM (1315 Valley Drive) on the FY 2026-27 budget — staff presents the reduction options, and the cut list starts taking shape. eComment closes at noon. Agenda →

Your money. If you run an LLC or S-corp, two California deadlines hit Monday, June 15: the PTE elective-tax payment and the LLC annual fee. Miss either and the FTB docks you. Confirm your number with your CPA. FTB details →

The market. Hermosa woke up: homes are selling in 32 days, down from 50 (per Redfin) — the clearest shift in either town's data. Everything else held. Every number, both towns → piertopier.news/data

Schools. HBCSD holds the last public hearing on next year's budget tomorrow at the district office. In MB, MBEF's appeal stands at $5.2M against a $6.8M district deficit — that gap gets decided at the June 17–18 board meetings. And Mira Costa took the CIF SS Commissioner's Cup; graduation is Thursday.

The pulse. HBPD flagged late-evening phone-and-wallet thefts on the 00 block of Pier Ave — zip valuables after dark. No water advisories on MB or HB sand this week.
