Long Beach
City Attorney

The City of Long Beach reached an amicable settlement agreement with Khien C. Ngo, property owner of Alsace Lorraine, to resolve all liens, associated charges, penalties and interest resulting from twenty-five (25) administrative citations issued by the City to Mr. Ngo for renting the premises to an unlicensed medical marijuana dispensary in violation of the Long Beach Municipal Code.

Under the terms of the settlement, Mr. Ngo has agreed to make certain payments to the City and improvements to the property. In exchange, the City will permit Mr. Ngo to apply for licenses that upon approval will permit Alsace Lorraine to operate at the subject Bixby Knolls property.

The City and Alsace Lorraine Fine Pastries have worked diligently to resolve this matter and anticipate a harmonious relationship moving forward.
