Tony Ayala
Tony Ayala is no longer Norwalk's mayor. The City of Norwalk's current mayor page identifies Jennifer Perez as mayor, while Ayala is listed as a councilmember.
Full reasoning
The post's infobox lists Tony Ayala in the mayor slot, but the City of Norwalk's current government pages show a different lineup. On the city's official website, the Mayor and City Council section lists Mayor Perez, Vice Mayor Rios, and Councilmember Ayala. Jennifer Perez also has an official city page headed "Mayor Perez" that states "Mayor Jennifer Perez...". That means Tony Ayala is currently serving as a councilmember, not as mayor.

The Metro C Line (formerly the Green Line) light rail provides service from the Norwalk C Line station to LAX (via shuttle from Aviation Station) and Redondo Beach.
This routing is outdated. Metro says the C Line now runs from Norwalk to the LAX/Metro Transit Center, while the K Line serves Redondo Beach; airport shuttles run from the LAX/Metro Transit Center, not Aviation Station.
Full reasoning
This sentence reflects an older Metro service pattern. Los Angeles Metro's official LAX/Metro Transit Center page says the C Line now runs from Norwalk to the new LAX/Metro Transit Center, its new final stop. The same page says the K Line now operates to Redondo Beach, and that the free airport shuttle runs between the LAX/Metro Transit Center and LAX terminals. Metro also notes that the old C & K Line Link 857 was discontinued when the new station opened. So the article is no longer accurate in saying the C Line goes to Redondo Beach or that LAX access is via a shuttle from Aviation Station.

The station is staffed with 206 sworn personnel.
A more recent City of Norwalk document says the Norwalk Sheriff's Station is currently staffed with 165 sworn personnel, not 206.
Full reasoning
The staffing figure in the article appears outdated. A more recent City of Norwalk environmental assessment states that the Norwalk Station is currently staffed with 165 sworn personnel and 37 professional staff. A related City of Norwalk planning document reproduces the Sheriff's Department service response and likewise lists 165 sworn personnel for the Norwalk Sheriff's Station. Those current city documents contradict the article's claim of 206 sworn personnel.
