Summary

Long Beach is staring down a $60 million budget shortfall and preparing for the first cuts in years—driven by falling tax revenue and rising costs. City leaders are holding community meetings this August to hear from residents and decide where to trim spending, with essential services like police, fire, and streets on the line. Last year’s reserve funds are gone, and the mayor’s budget proposal hits July 30—with final approval by Sept 8. Public input matters: attend hearings, voice your priorities, and help shape Long Beach’s financial future. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
