 The Local Agency Formation Commission of Tuolumne County was established by state law in 1963 to discourage urban sprawl and encourage the orderly formation and development of local government agencies.  There is a LAFCO in each of the 58 counties of California . 

 LAFCO is responsible for coordinating logical changes in local government boundaries including annexations and detachments of territory, incorporations of cities, formations of special districts and consolidations, mergers and dissolutions of districts, as well as reviewing ways to reorganize, simplify, and streamline government structure. 

 Regular meetings of the Local Agency Formation Commission are held on the last Monday of each month when there are matters to consider. Whenever a legal holiday falls on a regular meeting date, an alternate meeting date will be selected. All regular meetings of the Local Agency Formation Commission will be called to order at five o'clock p.m. , unless advertised differently.  Public hearings and meetings are held in the Tuolumne County Administration Center , 4th Floor, 2 South Green Street , Sonora unless advertised differently.
