Impact analysis
Long Beach secured $4 million in state funding for local projects, but the new homeless grant match could cost the city significantly.
Residents benefit from funded projects like the police de-escalation training center, fire marine safety equipment, and the West Health Facility.
The city's budget will absorb new match requirements and taxes on its own software subscriptions.
