Housing & Neighborhood Services
Our Housing & Neighborhood Services Bureau assists with the preservation and development of affordable housing, and offers a variety of innovative neighborhood improvement programs.
Housing programs include developer loans, and homeownership and rental housing resources. Funding for housing development is made available through a competitive Notice of Funding Availability process. Our housing staff is also engaged in research and policy development as well as the monitoring of long-term affordability covenants.
Neighborhood Improvement programs include residential and commercial improvement grant programs, Place Based Neighborhood Improvement projects, neighborhood clean-up events, an urban forestry program with neighborhood tree planting events, and an innovative Neighborhood Leadership Program. Our bureau also offers a Neighborhood Resource Center for residents and neighborhood associations.
The Long Beach Community Investment Company (LBCIC) advises the City Council regarding the delivery of housing and neighborhood revitalization services and the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) and Housing Successor funds. The LBCIC is comprised of a 7-member board of directors appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the City Council.
