Long Beach City Council will take a break from its regular meetings throughout July for the first time ever. Meetings that would have occurred on July 2, 9, and 23 are canceled, with only the July 16 meeting remaining on the schedule for any necessary business. The council will resume its regular meetings on August 6.

The initiative for this summer recess came from Mayor Rex Richardson and was included in the Fiscal Year 2024 Budget, which the City Council approved in September 2023. This move aligns Long Beach with other major cities in California and the state government, which also take summer breaks from legislative sessions.

Although council meetings are paused, councilmembers will continue their work within the community and attend various summer events. The city’s ongoing business is expected to remain unaffected by this pause. Commission and committee meetings will continue as planned, and their agendas are available on the City’s OneMeeting portal.
