Long Beach Seeks Community Input to Improve Access and Participation in City Council Meetings

Release Date: 2026-02-10

The City of Long Beach is committed to fostering a more inclusive and participatory democracy. To this end, the city is actively seeking input from residents, community organizations, and local businesses. Your insights are crucial in helping us understand how to enhance access to and participation in Long Beach City Council meetings. This city aims to identify and address any obstacles that may hinder community engagement.

I invite you to share your experiences and perspectives through an online survey, available in English, Spanish, Khmer, and Tagalog. The survey will be open until March 20, 2026. For those with limited digital access, public computer labs are available at all Long Beach Public Library locations. Additionally, the survey can be completed in person at upcoming City Commission and City Council meetings at City Hall, where printed copies will be provided. Your participation is vital in shaping a more accessible and responsive local government.
