         <p><span>The City has partnered with the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation (LAEDC) to create "Red Teams."</span> <span>Barbara Levine</span><span>, LAEDC Senior Regional Manager, leads a team of professionals to assist local businesses in looking for efficiencies and cost savings.
